Simon George Konrad Hill-Williams, a staunch fan of Yu-Gi-Oh, unfortunately passed away in April 2021 at a very young age, just turning 23. Out of respect for Simon’s hobby, his family decided to build a tombstone with a design and texture that mimics a card in this hit franchise.
Simon’s family decided to build his tombstone according to the design of a card from Yu-Gi-Oh, as a way to show respect for his hobby.
Sharing on personal Facebook, Virginia Denley-Hill, Simon’s mother said: “I just want people to understand that my son is a collector of Yu-Gi-Oh cards. So this tombstone is the best way to recreate the passion of his nephew after his death last April. We’re glad this headstone is big and beautiful enough, and I’m sure Simon feels the same way“.
Simon’s tombstone is designed as a 7-star card with 5000 attack points (Attack). On the back is the familiar yellow-orange tornado pattern on the black background of Yu-Gi-Oh. The description of the “card” reads: “Come on, it’s not polite to leave without saying goodbye” – a saying that Simon is very fond of.
The front of the tombstone simulates the layout of a Yu-Gi-Oh card, has all the necessary parameters, and the description is Simon’s favorite quote.
The back of the tombstone has a strange swirl pattern that is so familiar of Yu-Gi-Oh.
