Description:

Maybe I'm a little morbid, but I like to scan my local obituaries to rea about people's lives.

I came up for the idea for this swap while browsing - how many people actually know you better than you do?

For this swap, I want everyone to write their own obituary and send it to their partner. Include facts about you - and your life so far. What do you want the world to know about you after you're gone? What are the most important things about your life? What are your accomplishments? What goals are you working on? What are your regrets? Who would you leave behind if you left this world tomorrow? What would your most likely cause of death be? Include your name and general location, as well as your age.

For this swap, you can be silly or you can be serious - it should be a reflection of YOU as a person and a celebration or a mourning of your passing - whatever falls in line with your views on death.

Following standard obituary length, don't exceed 450 words.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!

Would you believe, I am going to deliver my own eulogy! I am getting ready to video it in the near future. I am also going to sing a song for it.

Hey, I figure it's MY funeral, so I want what I want. ;)

I put memorials on Find A Grave, so this swap is up my alley.
