Frequently Asked Questions

What is an obituary?

An obituary is a notice of a person's death, usually published in a newspaper or online, which typically includes a brief biography of the deceased's life. It serves as a public announcement and can also provide information about the upcoming funeral or memorial service.

What details are commonly included in an obituary?

An obituary generally includes the full name of the deceased, their date of passing, age at death, significant life milestones and achievements, names of surviving family members, details about the funeral or memorial service, and sometimes a photo.

Who writes obituaries?

Obituaries can be written by family members, friends, or funeral home staff. Some newspapers also have staff writers who assist in crafting obituaries based on information provided by the family or the funeral home.

Is there a difference between an obituary and a death notice?

Yes. A death notice is a shorter, more formal announcement of someone's passing, typically paid for by the family and providing very basic information. In contrast, an obituary is longer, provides more detailed biographical information, and may be written in a more personal tone.

How do I submit an obituary to a newspaper or website?

To submit an obituary, you should contact the newspaper or publication directly to inquire about their submission process, deadlines, and any associated costs. Online memorials or obituary websites usually have a submission form and guidelines available on their platforms.

What should I consider when writing an obituary?

When writing an obituary, consider the tone you would like to convey, the most important milestones and memories of the deceased's life, and the feelings of the family. Remember to be respectful and to verify all factual details before publishing.

How long should an obituary be?

The length of an obituary can vary but is typically between 200 and 600 words. The length may also be guided by the publication's limitations or by the budget if there is a cost associated with printing a longer notice.

Are obituaries required by law?

No, obituaries are not a legal requirement. They are a customary way for families to publicly acknowledge a death and to provide information about the life of the deceased and any services planned.

How can I make an obituary more personal?

To personalize an obituary, include anecdotes, personal stories, or details about the passions and hobbies of the deceased. You might also mention their favorite sayings, contributions to the community, and the personal qualities that made them unique.

What are the costs associated with publishing an obituary?

The cost of publishing an obituary can vary widely based on the length of the text, the publication's rate, and whether a photograph is included. Prices can range from nominal to several hundred dollars. Some online platforms may offer free or lower-cost options.

Is a photograph necessary for an obituary?

While not necessary, a photograph can add a personal touch to an obituary, helping readers connect with the deceased. It is common to include a recent photograph or one that reflects a significant time in the person's life.

How soon after someone's death should an obituary be published?

An obituary is usually published within a few days of a person's death to timely inform the community and to announce any visitation, service, or memorial information. However, the exact timing can vary based on the family's wishes and the publication's schedule.

Can an obituary be published online only?

Yes, an obituary can be published solely online, either on a dedicated memorial website, the funeral home's website, or on social media platforms. This option may be more cost-effective and can reach a wider audience.

Should children and grandchildren be listed by name in an obituary?

It is customary to list close relatives by name, including children and grandchildren, to acknowledge their relationship to the deceased. However, for privacy reasons or due to space limitations, some obituaries may opt to list the number of descendants instead.

How do we handle division within the family when writing an obituary?

In situations where family dynamics are complicated, it is essential to strive for a balanced and respectful tone. You may choose to focus on the facts of the deceased's life and acknowledge family members in a way that is inclusive and tactful.

What is the purpose of including charitable donation information in an obituary?

Including information about charitable donations in an obituary serves as a request for others to honor the deceased's memory by contributing to a cause they were passionate about, rather than sending flowers or gifts.

Are there templates available for writing an obituary?

Many funeral homes, newspapers, and online resources offer templates or guidelines to help you structure an obituary. These can serve as a starting point to ensure all relevant information is included and presented in a respectful manner.

Can an obituary be updated after it has been published?

An obituary in a print publication cannot be updated once published. However, online obituaries allow for updates or corrections as needed, although it is best to ensure all information is accurate before initial publication.

Is it appropriate to include information about the cause of death in an obituary?

Including the cause of death is at the discretion of the family and may depend on how they wish to remember their loved one. Some families opt for transparency, while others prefer to keep it private.

How can friends and acquaintances contribute to or interact with an online obituary?

Online obituaries often provide the opportunity for friends and acquaintances to leave condolences, share memories, and interact with the family through messages and stories. This interaction can be a source of comfort and support for those who are grieving.

Is there a standard structure or format for writing an obituary?

While there is no strict format, most obituaries follow a common structure: starting with the announcement of death, followed by biographical information, survivors and predeceased family members, service details, a personal message or quote, and any requests for charitable donations.
