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 help to notify people of the funeral or memorial service arrangements, allowing them to pay their respects and offer condolences to the family.
Who writes an obituary?
Typically, the family of the deceased or a close friend writes the obituary. In some cases, a funeral home or mortuary may assist with writing the obituary or provide a template for the family to fill out.
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, hobbies, achievements, and surviving family members.

How long should an obituary be?

What's the difference between an obituary and a death notice?
A death notice is typically a brief announcement of someone's passing, often without additional biographical information. An obituary, on the other hand, provides more details about the person's life and legacy.
