Obituary Newspapers Templates FAQ
How do you write an obituary for a newspaper?
Writing an obituary for a newspaper can feel overwhelming. However, you can break the process down step by step and use a ready-made template to make the process significantly easier.
How to prepare your newspaper obituary with TheGoodocs templates:
- Choose a newspaper obituary template on this page. You can find dozens of ready-to-edit designs and use them instead of creating a layout from scratch. Customize each element (fonts, colors, headings, spacing) to match your design preferences.
- Include essential facts first. Start with the basic information required for writing an obituary. Type in the full name, dates of birth and death, age, and funeral or memorial service details.
- Include a short biography. Newspapers allocate around 200–300 words for this section, so you should keep it concise. What can you type in this block? Mention details about the deceased’s childhood, career, key achievements, significant moments, hobbies, and values.
- Add a couple of short stories. If you know what distinguished the deceased or what friends and family remember most, it is worth including these details.
- List family members. Obituaries generally mention those preceded in death and those survived by the deceased. Here, you can list partners, children, parents, and other immediate family members.
- Provide details of the funeral if they are publicly available. Type in the date and time of the service, address, and attendance information. Most newspaper publications expect this section.
- Proofread the text, save it, and submit. You can save the completed newspaper obituary template in .docx, PDF, and other formats.
