As you may know, today (2nd September) is the thirtieth anniversary of JRR Tolkien's death. That got me thinking: what would certain characters from Middle-earth have written on their gravestones or in their obituaries?

NB: we are including Elves in this, even though they can only die in battle or because of a broken heart, and those who went to the Grey Havens at the end of LotR.

How about for Gandalf: 'And you all thought the Balrog got me!'

OK, that's rubbish. I'm sure you lot can do better than my pathetic attempt...

All my ideas are in the thread above. But if I get any more, I'll post them here.
