An obituary is a type of short record that usually appears in newspapers. The family members of that person will often work with the funeral home and provide information that appears in the paper. This can give you an idea of what the person was like and what he or she did. Depending on where the person lived, the obituary may appear in more than one newspaper. The length of the obituary will also depend on factors such as how much the paper charged or what information the family wanted to share.
