This is an extra credit assignment on writing your own obituary. This will give you an opportunity to think more about your future life. A typical obituary has five parts: it announces the death, it shares important information about that person’s life, it lists loved ones who are surviving the person, it lists scheduled ceremonies, and it lists where contributions can be sent. Here is a website that can help: “How to Write an Obituary
When you go to this site you can pretty much ignore the first step since it is about publishing your obituary. Please don’t publish it and put your family in a panic.
Let’s go through each part. 1. To announce your death give some thought to when you would like to die. This varies for people. Some people don’t want to live late into old age because they don’t want to be limited by that. Pick a time that allows you to think about your future life, otherwise, it doesn’t matter what you pick. 2. Sharing important information about your life is one of the important parts of this assignment. What do you want to be known for, what do you want people to say about you? You can dream here but make it fairly realistic. 3. Survivors. For this section, You will need to consider whether you will marry, have children, etc… Keep in mind that if you die at an old age your parents will not be survivors. siblings can be, children and grandchildren nieces and nephews as well as spouses often fit in this category. 4. Think a little here about where you want your funeral to be. Will it be a funeral (with your body there) or a memorial? 5. What causes are important to you? Pick one or two where people can contribute money in your name.
