"He Was Not The Best, But He Was The Best I Ever Had"

NPR is doing a series called ‘Dead Stop’ and last week visited the Coondog Cemetery in NW Alabama.

They’ve fixed up the sign since I’ve been last (these pics are from 2005):

and this is my favorite:

“Track: He was not the best, but he was the best I ever had.”
