Where Does Requiescat in Pace Come From?
Requiescat in Pace dates back to a traditional Catholic prayer for the dead. The first traces of the prayer date back to the 8th century. It was a part of Catholic funeral tradition to share a prayer for the dead.
The line “Requiescat in Pace” reminds the family that the deceased person rests eternally in Heaven. The original Latin prayer translates to:
Eternal rest grant unto him,
And let perpetual light shine upon him;
Rest in peace.
Amen.
Traditionally, this prayer would be set to music. Bach and Mozart both created Requiem music for this prayer. Requiescat in Pace was commonly used on gravestones as well as in prayer.

I almost went with 4, but realized that women only know what they don’t want.
