I'm beholden and grateful to him for figuring it out! Thanks so much for emailing him, I was surprised when he didn't comment. I thought this post would lure him for sure!

I'm kind of taken aback at my unintentionally appropriate timing. If I ever send out Easter cards, they'll totally have this printed on them.

It's really amazing how close your guess was!

When run through a translator you get:
"Accusation when pain mortem , Death Equitable in one , So you Immortal Deadly image the making"
it's like engrish... but latin...
still, pretty image...

I love online translators for exactly this reason! Haha.

My Latin is not much better, though I did take two semesters of it in college. But that was very long ago...

I can kind of guess at it but I am not so certain I am right. I think it says...
Death is crime and punishment. Death takes all (that is a real guess right here) so the immortal death makes your image.

or maybe it says that death makes your image immortal. It is too late for me to go looking up more details. Hope someone would jump in who has more recent experience.

Looks like we have an answer (see above)! Thanks for helping! I've had less Latin than probably anyone here, so I really appreciate everyone taking the time to help figure it out. :)
