Sacred 2:Valeview Cemetary

Valeview is a small farming community northeast of Griffinborough and due south of the Royal Honkytonk Inn. It has a small cemetery across the bridge from the main part of town that contains some interesting markers...

• Don't ask for whom the bell tolled, it tolled for me.

- Refers to the novel "For Whom The Bell Tolls" by Ernest Hemmingway.

• This was rather harsh for a speeding ticket.
• "Whats the worst that could happen", he asked.
• I wish I'd checked the wind direction before the 'bigger they are, the harder they fall' challenge.
• Ha! - gutted by his own razor sharp wit.
• Sorry, Ma, How was I supposed to know "step on a crack, break your mother's back" would lead to this?
• She stopped going out because she was afraid of what might happen, so she stayed at home and died of boredom.
• So my idea for a dragon-flamed burger restaurant didn't work out. What are you, perfect?

There are a couple of easter eggs here as well:

• Poor Nero, He was done in by a Wolfe.

- Nero Wolfe is a fictional New York City detective created by Rex Stout in 1934. There were 33 novels and 39 short stories written about the detective. There was also a TV series starring Maury Chaykin as Nero Wolfe on A&E.

The memorial statuary in the center of the back row of the cemetery:
