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 serves as a way to share the news of a loved one's passing with friends, family, and the community.
Why are obituaries important?
Obituaries are important because they provide a way to honor and remember the deceased, while also serving as a notification to those who may not have been aware of their passing. They can also be a valuable tool for genealogists and researchers, providing information about a person's life and legacy.
Who typically writes an obituary?
In most cases, the obituary is written by the family of the deceased, often with the assistance of a funeral home or cremation service. In some cases, a friend or colleague may also write an obituary.
What information should be included in an obituary?
A typical obituary includes the person's name, age, date of birth and death, place of residence, occupation, education, military service, hobbies, and surviving family members. It 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 and the wishes of the family. Typically, an obituary ranges from 100 to 500 words.
Can I include photos in an obituary?
Yes, many publications allow you to include one or more photos with the obituary. This can be a nice way to personalize the tribute and make it more meaningful to readers.
How do I submit an obituary to a newspaper or online publication?
The process for submitting an obituary varies depending on the publication. You can usually find submission guidelines on the publication's website or by contacting them directly. Be sure to follow their specific requirements for content, length, and formatting.
How much does it cost to publish an obituary?

Can I write my own obituary in advance?
Yes, many people choose to write their own obituary in advance as a way to ensure that their life story is told accurately and in their own words. This can also be a therapeutic exercise in reflecting on one's life and accomplishments.
What is the difference between an obituary and a death notice?
A death notice is typically a brief announcement of a person's passing, often including only basic information such as name, age, and date of death. An obituary, on the other hand, provides more detailed information about the person's life and legacy.
Can I include humor or anecdotes in an obituary?
Absolutely! An obituary is a celebration of the person's life, so including humorous stories or anecdotes can help bring their personality to life and make the tribute more engaging.
How do I handle sensitive or private information in an obituary?
If there is sensitive or private information that you do not wish to share publicly, it's best to omit it from the obituary or discuss it with family members before including it. Remember that an obituary is intended to be a respectful tribute to the deceased.
Can I include charitable donations or memorial information in an obituary?
Yes! Including information about charitable donations or memorial services can be a meaningful way to honor the deceased and provide guidance to those who wish to pay their respects.
What if I need to make corrections or updates to an already-published obituary?
Contact the publication directly as soon as possible if you need to make corrections or updates. They will guide you through their process for making changes.
How long does it take for an obituary to be published?
The timeframe for publishing an obituary varies depending on the publication's schedule and deadlines. Online publications may publish immediately, while print newspapers may take several days or even weeks.
Can I republish an obituary in multiple locations?
Yes! If you want to reach a wider audience or publish in multiple locations, you can certainly do so. Just be sure to check with each publication for their specific submission guidelines and fees.
What if I'm unsure about what information to include in an obituary?
If you're unsure about what information to include or how to structure your obituary, consider consulting with a funeral home or cremation service for guidance. They often have experience writing obituaries and can provide valuable advice.
Can I include quotes or lyrics in an obituary?
Absolutely! Including meaningful quotes or lyrics can add depth and personality to the tribute. Just be sure to properly attribute any copyrighted material.
How do I ensure that my loved one's online presence is respected after they pass away?
This is an important consideration! Be sure to notify social media platforms and other online services of your loved one's passing so that they can update their accounts accordingly. You may also want to consider creating a memorial page or tribute website.
What if I'm struggling emotionally with writing an obituary?
This is completely normal! Writing an obituary can be a difficult task emotionally. Consider enlisting the help of a trusted friend or family member, or taking breaks as needed. Remember that this is a celebration of your loved one's life – take your time and focus on sharing their story.
Can I use social media to share an obituary?
Absolutely! Social media can be a powerful tool for sharing news of a loved one's passing with friends and family. You can share a link to the published obituary or create your own post with details about memorial services and other relevant information.
How do I preserve my loved one's memory after they're gone?
This is such an important question! There are many ways to preserve your loved one's memory – from creating a memory book or scrapbook to planting trees or establishing scholarships in their name. Find what feels most meaningful to you and your family.
Is it appropriate to include personal messages or condolences in an obituary?
This depends on your relationship with the deceased and your goals for the obituary. While personal messages can be meaningful, they may not be suitable for all audiences. Consider sharing these sentiments at memorial services or through private correspondence instead.
What if I'm worried about privacy concerns when publishing an obituary?
This is understandable! When publishing an obituary, you'll want to balance sharing information about your loved one with protecting their privacy (and that of their survivors). Consider omitting sensitive details like addresses or phone numbers if you're concerned about privacy issues.
