This article describes a Microsoft Word template for creating an obituary and offers advice on how to make changes to the templates if needed. – An obituary is an important document that should be prepared and published after the death of a family member. Funeral homes often provide a template on their website for making such announcements, but these templates are not always tailored to the deceased family’s needs. The self-made obituary template allows for customization so that the family can add all the names and life details of their deceased family members. The newspaper notice announcement can then be printed from the template. If there is no funeral program, it is possible to create one too with this template.

It includes the essentials for an obituary, such as a statement about the deceased person’s life accomplishments, an identifying statement with name and age, death date, and age at the place of death. It also includes a section to highlight the individual’s accomplishments and personality. All card details can be included in this template including name, statement, highlights, and one photo of the deceased. This template is a great way to announce someone’s accomplishments and remember their life with a photo on the card. It also includes the birth dates for reference.
