Obituary and Poem

Obituary and Poem
For this assignment, you will need to research how individuals memorialize their loved ones. One way that this is commonly done is through newspaper obituaries, which can also be accessed online as well as in print. Also, individuals have now started to set up electronic memorial pages for their loved ones. Review several different obituaries both in the newspaper and via electronic memorial pages (many can be found through funeral home websites). Once you have reviewed the obituaries, draft your own. Compare and contrast the obituaries that you reviewed. What did you like? What didn’t you like? Then write your own obituary. Where would you like for it to appear (newspaper or elsewhere)? Why? Also, find a poem that you would like to have read at your funeral. Explain why you chose this poem.
