🖋️ When Writing an Obituary Feels Too Much
In the days after a loss, even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. Our Obituary Writing Service offers gentle, professional support — shaping an obituary around the details and memories you share, with care, warmth and precision.
There’s no right or wrong way to do this — and asking for help doesn’t take anything away from the love behind your words.
Each obituary is written ready for use in newspapers, funeral programmes, online memorials or social media.
✨ What Makes a Good Obituary?
A good obituary is more than a list of dates and places — it’s often the first time a life is summed up in words. A lasting tribute blends essential facts with the personal touches that bring someone’s memory to life.
Whether it’s sharing their greatest achievements, their quirks, or the values they lived by, an obituary gives others a true sense of who they were.
We specialise in creating obituaries that balance this beautifully, offering comfort to families while providing a clear, thoughtful summary for readers.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes — and it’s very common. An obituary is primarily a factual notice written for a wider audience, such as friends, colleagues, and the local community. During a busy and emotional time, many families choose to have help shaping these details clearly and respectfully. Getting support here is a practical step, not a personal one.
-
Most obituaries are between 200 and 400 words, depending on where they’ll be published and how much detail you’d like to include. Some are very brief notices, while others share a little more background. We’ll help you find the right length for your situation and audience.
-
Obituaries focus on clear, factual details. This usually includes the person’s name, dates, key life details, close family members, and any service information. You don’t need to write anything polished — simply sharing what you know is enough for us to shape a respectful obituary.
-
Absolutely. Many people only have essential details at first, especially when arrangements are still underway. We can work from basic information and help structure it clearly, adding warmth and context where appropriate — without overstepping or making assumptions.
-
An obituary is informational and factual, written for a broad audience. A eulogy or tribute is personal and reflective, often read aloud during a service. Because obituaries serve a different purpose, they are generally easier and more appropriate to outsource, particularly when time is limited.
-
Obituaries are written for a wider circle — including friends, neighbours, colleagues, and community members who may not attend the service but wish to be informed. This broader audience is why clarity and accuracy are especially important.
-
Yes. We can prepare obituaries suitable for newspapers, funeral home websites, and online memorial platforms. If you’re working to specific word limits or formatting guidelines, you’re welcome to share those and we’ll take them into account.
-
Obituaries are usually delivered within 24–48 hours of receiving your information. If you’re working to a tight deadline, you can let us know and we’ll always try to help where possible.
-
Yes. We understand that obituaries are often needed quickly. If your situation is urgent, please mention this when you get in touch and we’ll do our best to prioritise your request.
