Accurate Headstone?

Two sisters lived together, and one became quite ill. Actually her doctor told her she had but a short time to live. She spoke to her sister and said "Jennie, when I die and you put up a gravestone, I want you to inscribe it just the way I tell you. I want them to put my name on it and underneath":

"BORN A VIRGIN"
"LIVED A VIRGIN"
"DIED A VIRGIN"

She died shortly thereafter, and Jennie went to the maker of tombstones and explained what inscription she wanted. The gravestone maker told her that there were simply too many words to be put on a headstone.

Jennie complained that those words were her sisters dying request and the gravestone maker reassured her that he would see what he could do.

In about a month the gravestone maker called Jennie and told her the tombstone was ready, and that he had complied with her dead sisters wishes as best as he could. Jennie looked at the tombstone and across the top was her sister's name just as she had asked, and underneath that was printed:


R.I.P.
