Guide to Obituary Writing

A person's obituary is often the final public opportunity to share their life story with the world. Together we will examine the five main components of most obituaries, and discuss opportunities and challenges that often arise when creating an obituary.

We will examine some examples of obituaries and work together to identify some of the characteristics that separate a good obituary from a great one.

Finally, with time permitting, you will have an opportunity to ask questions of a Licensed Illinois Funeral Director about obituaries, as well as any other related to the funeral industry that may pique your curiosity.

Jay Schramm is a Licensed Illinois Funeral Director with a lifetime of creative writing experience.
