Obituaries - Wallkill Valley Times (2024)

FAQs

Do obituaries list cause of death? ›

The first paragraph of the obituary should include the deceased person's full name, including any nicknames they may have used, their age, date and place of death. Some people choose to include cause of death, but this is optional depending on how much information you would like to share.

Why do I read obituaries? ›

For one, obituaries are stories with a closure unlike the daily news items that are generally interim reports. They are often good stories. One reads about remarkable accomplishments, odd achievements, quirky lives, wild adventures, strange vicissitudes, and forgotten personalities.

What should you not include in an obituary? ›

In most cases, obituaries do not include the names or nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, or in-laws unless they were close to the deceased. Grandchildren are sometimes listed but often numbered instead (…he leaves behind 5 grandchildren).

How do you find out the cause of death of a person? ›

In the United States, death certificates are public record, so you should be able to obtain a copy from the vital records office in the state where the person died. The death certificate will list the cause of death as well as other important information, such as the time and place of death.

Why do newspapers charge so much for obituaries? ›

Why does it cost so much to post an obituary? Publishing an obituary in the newspaper is expensive because of the limited space papers have. Newspapers value every inch of each page, so they must charge to use that limited space for an obituary.

What to say after reading an obituary? ›

A Short List of Appropriate Phrases:
  • Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
  • Please accept my condolences on the loss of your partner.
  • With deepest sympathy for your loss.
  • Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
  • Please know our loving thoughts embrace you each and every day.

Do obituaries have to be factual? ›

The format or style of an obituary can range from a very brief and factual statement of death to an elaborate narrative that pays tribute to the life of the deceased.

Why do obituaries not include cause of death? ›

When it comes to families of the deceased, their obituaries leave out cause of death information because it's simply their choice — in the end, it's not about how the person died. But rather about how they lived their life.

What are the differences between death notices and obituaries? ›

Death notices are short and to the point—Name, date of death and where/when the services will be held. However, the obituaries highlight the deceased's community involvement, accomplishments, interests and survivor's names of the beloved.

What does it mean when no cause of death is given? ›

Deaths classified as undetermined are deaths in which, after a thorough investigation and consideration of all information available, one manner of death is no more compelling than another manner of death.
