100 years after you are dead, no one will remember you ever existed.

And after you're dead, you'll never remember that you were ever alive.

My great grandfather (born in Galway, Ireland, in 1846, came to San Francisco as a child, resided as an adult on 51 Sanchez Street SF, and died in 1907.)
His job in San Francisco was as an undertaker. When business was slow, they made furniture, otherwise coffins.
His daughter, my Grandmother, was born in 1883 and lived in San Francisco. Oh, she had some great stories. Sharp as a tack until she passed away in 1971.

always makes me think of Percy Shelley’s ozymandias.
