What do you want on your tombstone?

"Prosi O Zdrowas Marya."

Do you know what that means?

"He (she/they) ask(s) for a Hail Mary (from the gravesite visitor)."*

That.
Is
Awesome

(And yes, we gave them one.)

*Edit: After talking to a few Poles, I found that the actual translation is "Please, a Hail Mary."
Even better.
