Why We Built Obituary Made Easy
When someone you love passes away, you're suddenly expected to find the right words at one of the hardest moments of your life.
The Blank Page
You know their life. You know their personality. You remember the stories.
But where do you begin?
We guide you with simple, thoughtful questions so you never have to start with a blank page.
The Deadline
Funeral arrangements can move quickly, leaving families only a short time to prepare an obituary and memorial materials.
Our guided process helps you create something meaningful without making you feel rushed.
The Pressure
You want to get it right.
The names. The dates. The memories. The personality. The things that made them special.
Obituary Made Easy helps organize those pieces into a tribute that sounds personal—because it begins with your memories.
How It Works
Tell Us About Them
We'll ask gentle, easy-to-answer questions about their life, family, personality, accomplishments, favorite memories, traditions, faith, and the little things that made them special.
You don't have to know how to write an obituary. Just tell us about the person you loved.
Choose the Right Tone
Every person is different.
Choose a style that feels appropriate for them—warm and heartfelt, traditional and respectful, uplifting and celebratory, faith-centered, or simple and personal.
Read It. Change It. Make It Yours.
We'll help turn your answers into a thoughtful first draft. Nothing is final until you're comfortable with it.
Add a memory. Change a sentence. Correct a detail. Include another family member.
You're always in control.
Choose a Design and Share
Choose from 29 memorial designs or a folded funeral program, and preview it free with their photo, names, and dates.
When you're finished, download the print-ready PDF with the $49 Tribute, then print it or share it with family.

Invite Family to Help Tell Their Story
A life contains more memories than one person can remember.
Family sharing is coming soon. When it's ready, you'll be able to share the tribute with family members so they can:
- Help check names and dates
- Contribute memories
- Suggest changes
- Make sure important parts of their story aren't forgotten
Together, you can create something that truly feels like them.
For now, you can copy your draft and send it to family for their thoughts before you finish.

From Simple Memories to Meaningful Words
"My mom loved her garden. Sunday dinner was always at her house. Everybody was welcome, and somehow she always made room for one more person at the table."
"Her home was a gathering place for family and friends, especially on Sundays, when there was always another chair waiting at the table. She found joy in her garden, but her greatest joy came from the people she loved and the warmth she created wherever she went."
Your memories remain at the heart of every word.
You bring the memories. We help you find the words.
Create Something as Unique as the Person You Remember
Choose a memorial style that reflects their personality, their life, and the way you want them remembered. Here are a few of the 29 designs in our Design Library, each print-ready at 8.5 × 11 in.
You can change your design before completing your memorial.
A few simple answers can become a beautiful tribute.
From cherished memories and important milestones to family relationships and personal stories, Obituary Made Easy helps bring the pieces together into a memorial that celebrates a life—not just a list of dates.
Margaret Ellen "Peggy" Hayes, 84, of Mesa, Arizona, passed away peacefully on March 2, 2026, surrounded by the family she spent her life gathering close.
Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Walter and June Pruitt, Peggy grew up the oldest of four and learned early that a kitchen is the heart of a home. She taught second grade for thirty-one years, and more than a few of her former students still remember the sunflowers she grew along the classroom window.

Frequently Asked Questions
I don't know what to write. Can I still use this?

You provide the memories. We help organize them into words.
Will it sound like AI?
No two lives are alike, and their obituary shouldn't sound alike either.

We help organize those memories and find the words, but you remain in control of the final tribute.

Can I come back later?
Yes. Grief doesn't operate on a schedule, and you shouldn't feel pressured to finish everything at once.
