Please give me these details (or more) about your loved one so that I may weave them into a narrative biography.
  • If you don't know everything, or don't want to say, that's fine.  And please add whatever else you wish.
  • If you'd prefer to write the biography yourself, that's even better. You can read it at the service, or if that's challenging, I can read what you have written.  
  • Share what is personal for you.  The more sweet or funny stories, the better!  Each of us gets to know only a small portion of a person, captured at a particular moment in time.  The biography is a way for everyone to see a glimpse of a bigger picture, to see their memory in a wider context.
  • Copy/paste this form into an email or a Word document so you have plenty of space to write whatever you want to say.
