Obituary for a Friend
When you write an obituary or notice for a close friend, you honor a chosen bond — the shared history and the person the world should remember.
Generate, refine, edit, and print
The obituary writer works like the eulogy builder, with stricter fact review for names, dates, family, and service details.
Guided facts
Add only confirmed names, dates, family details, services, and life story notes.
Fact review
Review the draft before publishing, especially phrases like peacefully or surrounded by loved ones.
Copy and print
Use the editor to refine, copy, print, or prepare text for a funeral home or newspaper.
What to include
Note their family where known, their work and passions, and the stories and qualities that defined your friendship and their character.
Coordinate with family
Confirm survivor details and service information with the family before publishing, especially when you are writing on their behalf.
