Whitney Houston's Tombstone Includes 'I Will Always Love You' Lyric

Whitney Houston's Tombstone Includes Famous Lyric

Whitney Houston's tombstone was placed upon her New Jersey grave last week, and the epitaph on the headstone includes the words "I Will Always Love You."

The lyric is, of course, the title and chorus of a song Houston made famous, though it was originally written and performed by Dolly Parton. Houston is buried in Westfield, New Jersey's Fairview Cemetery, in the plot next to her father.

Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown was engaged last week to Nick Gordon. Gordon was a fixture in the Brown-Houston household -- so much so that Bobbi Kristina had to clarify that she and Gordon were not brothers or adopted siblings when announcing their engagement.

Head over to TMZ to see a photo of the headstone, which appears to be granite and includes a heart and a cross. (But heads-up: Houston died in February of 2012, as it says on the headstone, not in 2011 as TMZ reports.)
