How It Works
1. Schedule a Short Phone Conversation
Use our online scheduler to book a call with our obituary writer at a time that works for you. The call typically takes 20–30 minutes.
2. Share a Few Basic Details
During the call, we’ll ask a series of gentle, focused questions to learn about your loved one and their life story. Please have these details handy:
- Full name and any nicknames
- Dates of birth and death
- Key family members and relationships
- Places lived, work history, military service
- Faith or community affiliations
- Hobbies, interests, and special memories
You don’t need to prepare a draft—just be ready to talk about the person you loved.
3. We Write and Deliver Your Obituary
Within 24 hours of your phone call, our writer will provide a fully typed obituary in a standard document format (such as Word). You can review it and request one round of revisions, which we’ll gladly incorporate. Your obituary will be ready to:
- Print in funeral service programs
- Share with your funeral home or church
- Post online or in newspapers (subject to their guidelines)
