Give Their Obituary, Written for You

$325

No account needed. We confirm the details with you, arrange it with the family, and write your card by hand.

Step 1 of 2

Who you are

Your nameYour emailPhone (optional)

No account needed. We only use this to confirm details and to tell you when your care has reached them.

Who it's for

Give us the name you would use out loud, either one person, like Margaret, or a household, like the MacLeod family. We use exactly that when we get in touch and on your card, so nothing arrives sounding official.

We reach out gently to arrange timing. They can decline, change the timing, or move it to something else that would help more, and can ask us not to get in touch again.

If you don't have it, or you'd rather not share it, leave it blank and we'll get in touch with the family and arrange it directly.Where are they?

How it should arrive

Arranged and delivered by Fare-WellWe coordinate directly with the family. Your handwritten card goes with it.Send as a digital gift cardA designed Fare-Well gift card is emailed to you or to them, with your card message included.Send a physical gift cardA printed Fare-Well gift card, packaged by hand and mailed. Available on Prince Edward Island and across Canada.

Depending on the item, that can mean Fare-Well wrapping or tissue, protective presentation, a short note explaining the support, and a delivery handled by a person rather than dropped at a door. The handwritten card carrying your exact words is the one constant.

Your handwritten card

Your exact words, copied out by hand onto a card made by a local artist. Write it the way you would say it out loud. A single line is plenty.

What should the card say?

This goes on a card made by a local artist, in someone's handwriting, with a memorial birdseed ornament, and travels with your gift.

Finding the words can be hard. If you're struggling to find yours, these might help.
