5. I don't think I'd want the word "murdered" next to the his name - how 'bout "put to rest"?
Just a thought...

6. Yes, no kidding,
That's awful. Or "laid to rest."

Otherwise it sounds, on first read, like he's a murderer.

7.  "Put to rest" and "Laid to rest" are too civilized, too passive.
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 09:35 PM by rocknation
I liked "murdered" precisely because it suggests being taken by surprise and malice aforethought. I think "slaughtered" produces the same effect, so in the spirit of democratic compromise, I'll go with that.

Oh, and thanks for the votes.

8. I saw you had inserted "slaughtered" - it is an improvement. I'll accept your
democratic compromise.
