SUMMARY:May 28 2026 - Obituary Writing Workshop Hosted by: Sara Williams
DESCRIPTION:BRINGING THE DEAD TO LIFE: THE ART OF THE OBITUARY:  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if\, when your time comes\, virtually all plans were in place\, completed by the one person in the world most qualified to make them—you? Writing your life’s story is a good place to begin because it is a reminder of your own importance\, remembering who you are\, what you have enjoyed\, and what you have achieved in this life. Together\, we will explore the art of creating a meaningful obituary\, whether for yourself or someone you love. You will see examples of the best obits—and the worst—and learn a myriad of ways to craft this final tribute.
