Poignant -- 1. pleasantly sharp or pungent
2. touching (emotionally), arousing sympathy or pity

USAGE--Up to page 118 ( the death of her son ) I found the story poignant and amusing.

EPITAPH:

NOUN-
-a commemorative inscription on a tomb or mortuary monument about the person buried at that site.
- a brief poem or other writing in praise of a deceased person.

next word:SINISTER


The point of living and of being an optimist, is to be foolish enough to believe the best is yet to come..
