I think the quote you're looking for here is...
"Hey, y'all, watch this!"
From my own experience, the posse had faced a group of unique
zombies/walking dead of a voodoo variety that could only be killed by saying
a short magical phrase while simultaneously sacrificing a small fowl of some
sort. Later, they came upon plain old everyday walking dead for the first
time, which lead to an incorrect assumption and this quote:
"I've seen this before. Get a chicken."
And not exactly a death quote, but a quote about death. After seeing my
gunslinger max out on a Quickness roll and take out 6 men before they could
even act, the huckster (who was a VotWW and knew about harrowed) looked over
at him and said,
"Just so you know, if you ever die, I'm shooting you in the head."
And of course one of my favorites
"Nothing could live through that."
"You're assuming that dead is safer. You're wrong."
And he was. :)

"You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Ghost Rock, son. Nothing else in the
world smells like that. I love the smell of ghost rock in the morning. You
know, one time we had a hill bombed, for twelve hours. When it was all over
I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' Yank body. The
smell, you know that sulphurous smell, the whole hill. Smelled like...
victory. Someday this war's gonna end..."
