Writing Your Own Obituary

This was brought to my attention by a thread on Findagrave.com by JHofmann I think we can all learn something from this lady's obituary.Not just about writing our own obit though that's a great idea.But about how we look at our own lives and loved ones.I thank her for a lesson I sometimes need a reminder of.How even the small,everyday things count in life. http://obits.cleveland.com/obituaries/Cleveland/obituary.aspx?n=Nancy-Lee-HIXSON&pid=129179739
http://www.37days.com/2009/07/live-an-irresistible-obituary.html I included both links because online obits don't stay for long and I could use a reread of this one now and then.And the blog 37 days looks interesting too!

I've written my obituary and have it on my desktop where my family can easily obtain it. I've done it because I know what I've done, what I've belonged to and who's name I want included in MY obituary.

Good Idea Linda.I hate that obituary's have become so expensive and therefore not as common.Thanks for reading this.
