Why are obituaries important?
Obituaries serve as a historical record of an individual's passing, informing the community and allowing friends, family, and acquaintances to pay their respects. They help to honor the deceased's life and can aid in the grieving process.
How long should an obituary be?
The length of an obituary can vary widely, from a few lines to a lengthy paragraph. It depends on the wishes of the family, the life story of the deceased, and the space available in the publication.
What information is typically included in an obituary?
An obituary typically includes the full name of the deceased, their age, place of residence, date of death, and cause of death if the family wishes to include it. It may also provide a summary of their life, achievements, family members, and details about the service arrangements.
Can obituaries include photographs?
Yes, many obituaries include a photograph of the deceased. The photo can be a recent one or a picture from a significant time in their life, reflecting how the family wishes to remember them.
What tone is appropriate for an obituary?

Are obituaries verified for accuracy?
Most newspapers and online platforms have internal procedures to verify the basic facts of an obituary, such as the death itself, through a death certificate or funeral home confirmation, to prevent fraudulent submissions.
What is the difference between an obituary and a death notice?
A death notice is a shorter, more formal statement that announces someone's passing without the detailed life story that an obituary offers. Death notices are often paid for by the family and are strictly to the point.
Can anyone submit an obituary?
While generally a family member or the executor of the estate submits an obituary, technically anyone close to the deceased who has pertinent information and consent can submit one.

Can obituaries be posted online?

How can one personalize an obituary?
To personalize an obituary, include anecdotes, the deceased's personal quotes, details about their personality and passions, and insights into their relationships with loved ones. Highlighting their unique attributes makes the obituary more heartfelt.
Are there different styles or formats for obituaries?
Yes, obituaries can follow traditional formats that stick to biographical and service information, or they can be more modern and narrative, telling a story about the deceased's life and character. The style can be selected to best reflect the individual.
Is it appropriate to include charitable donation information in an obituary?
It is quite common to include a request for charitable donations in lieu of flowers. The family can suggest donations to a charity significant to the deceased or one related to the cause of death.
What should you avoid including in an obituary?
It is advisable to avoid including very personal details that could be misused, such as the deceased's home address, birth date, and mother's maiden name, to prevent identity theft or other security issues.
Can a family choose not to have an obituary?
Absolutely, it is a personal choice. If privacy is a concern or if the deceased had expressed a wish not to have one, the family can decide against publishing an obituary.
Who should be listed in the surviving family section?
Typically, immediate family members such as spouses, children, parents, and siblings are listed in the obituary. It may also include close extended family like grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and sometimes close friends if the family deems it appropriate.
How can the community contribute to an obituary?
Members of the community can contribute to an obituary by providing memories, photographs, and stories to the family to be included. They can also share the obituary to honor the deceased and write their own tributes in the comments section if the obituary is published online.
