Frequently Asked Questions

What is an obituary?

An obituary is a written notice that announces the death of a person, typically including their name, age, date of birth and death, and a brief biography. It's usually published in a newspaper, online obituary platform, or funeral home website to inform friends, family, and acquaintances of the person's passing.

Why are obituaries important?

Obituaries serve as a way to honor and celebrate the life of the deceased, while also providing essential information to those who need to know about the passing. They can also help to facilitate communication among loved ones, allowing them to share condolences, memories, and support during a difficult time.

Who typically writes an obituary?

The responsibility of writing an obituary usually falls on the family members or close friends of the deceased. In some cases, a funeral home or obituary writer may assist with the writing process. The person writing the obituary should have a good understanding of the deceased person's life, accomplishments, and personality.

What information should be included in an obituary?

A typical obituary includes the person's full name, age, date of birth and death, place of residence, occupation, education, achievements, hobbies, and surviving family members. You may also include information about memorial services, donations in lieu of flowers, and other relevant details.

How long should an obituary be?

The length of an obituary can vary depending on the publication or platform. Generally, it should be concise and to the point, ranging from 100 to 500 words. Online obituaries often allow for more detailed and lengthy tributes.

Can I include photos in an obituary?

Yes, many publications and online platforms allow you to include one or multiple photos with the obituary. This can be a great way to personalize the tribute and provide a visual representation of the person's life.

How do I submit an obituary to a newspaper?

Contact the newspaper's obituary department directly to inquire about their submission process and guidelines. They may require specific formatting, word count limits, and deadlines for publication.

What is the difference between an obituary and a death notice?

A death notice is a brief announcement of someone's passing, typically including only basic information such as name, age, and date of death. An obituary is a more detailed tribute that provides additional information about the person's life and accomplishments.

Can I write my own obituary?

Yes, some people choose to write their own obituary in advance as a way to control how they want to be remembered. This can also be a therapeutic exercise in reflecting on one's life and legacy.

How much does it cost to publish an obituary?

The cost of publishing an obituary varies widely depending on the publication, location, and length of the tribute. Expect to pay anywhere from $50 to several hundred dollars for print publication. Online obituaries may be free or low-cost.

Can I edit or update an obituary after it's been published?

In most cases, it's difficult or impossible to make changes to a printed obituary once it's been published. However, online obituaries can often be edited or updated by the author or administrator.

What if I want to keep the obituary private?

If you prefer not to publicly announce the passing of your loved one, you can opt for a private or limited-circulation obituary. This might be shared only with close family and friends or through a private online memorial.

How long are obituaries kept online?

The duration that an online obituary remains available varies depending on the platform or website. Some may keep them permanently accessible, while others may remove them after a certain period.

Can I include quotes or lyrics in an obituary?
