Headstone for a woman who died at 97 includes her signature fudge recipe

Logan Cemetery in Utah is home to one of the most creative and practical headstones to ever mark a final resting place. The headstone for husband and wife, Wade and Kathryn Andrews, features the dates they lived, some images that represent Wade’s life, and Kathryn’s fudge recipe.

Wade first passed away in 2000 and Kathryn helped select the images that went on his side of the headstone. When her children asked what she’d like to have to have on hers, she said she’d like her fudge recipe.

“She really loved people,” Janice Johnson, Kathryn’s daughter, said according to Lexington 18. “She would write poetry, and she would take fudge whenever people got together.”

The headstone has become quite the attraction at Logan Cemetery with photos of it popping up online.

The cool thing is that Kathryn, who also went by Kay, knew that it brought people joy because it was engraved years before her passing in 2019 at the age of 97.

Kay may have left this mortal coil, but her fudge recipe lives on.
