My husband was my brother from another mother
For 15 years I was a happily married homemaker with a wonderful husband. "Duncan" and I attended church together, frolicked through the fields, even exterminated rodents together. He was my best friend. It was bliss.
Last year I found out my father had had an affair with Duncan's mother the year I was born, which makes him my half-brother! The news was too much for my husband. He had a fatal heart attack not long after.
What should I put on his gravestone -- "Loving Brother" or "Loving Husband"?

Obviously you need to acknowledge both. Something along the lines of "Loving Husbather" or "Loving Brosand". Or, choose one and only refer to the other. "To my brother, the best lay I ever had." "To my husband, who never let blood relation get in the way of a good roll in the hay." Yeah, that last one. It rhymes, and it gets the point across.

omg im sooo sorrryyy!!!i sympathise complately :(...put it as what you believed he was not what you were told. if you knew him as your husband then thats what should be put on his gravestone.

Put 'Loving Husband'
You had no clue that you were siblings so he's still your husband regardless.
