You could also go one step further and make an actual physical mini-tombstone out of a plank of wood, and put a little bit of fake grass on the bottom. Alternatively I think it would be fun to make one out of gingerbread and decorate it!

For a balding guy, an alternative tombstone message could be:

"In loving memory of (Name)'s Hair"

30th Birthday Gag Gift Poem

A silly poem to go along with your gag gift:

I heard that you'll turn 30 this year
But don't be scared - there's nothing to fear!

Nothing, that is, but creaky joints...
...and an achy back, and a few other points...

Oh and wrinkly skin, and age spots too
But don't worry old man (or woman), we'll still love you!
