Writing an Obituary in Ann Arbor? You Don't Have to Do It Alone.

We help Ann Arbor families write beautiful, personalized obituaries — free, in minutes, with AI that listens before it writes.

Most families sit down to write an obituary and freeze.

The cursor blinks on a blank page, and suddenly every memory of your loved one feels too big for words. Whether they loved walking through the Nichols Arboretum in the fall or cheering on the Wolverines at the Big House, capturing a lifetime in a few paragraphs can feel overwhelming. You're not alone—and you don't have to do it alone.

Have you noticed how more families in Washtenaw County are asking us about digital tributes these days? I’ve seen it myself—one family wants a simple slideshow set to their dad’s old jazz records, while another asks for an interactive timeline of their mom’s life that guests can add to from their phones. It’s not replacing what we do here in Ann Arbor, but it’s giving folks another way to hold onto someone they loved, especially when over half are choosing cremation and a traditional service just doesn’t feel like the right fit anymore.

How It Works

1

Tell us about them

Share a few memories, details, and stories—maybe their favorite spot at Kerrytown or the way they'd wave at neighbors on the Old West Side. No need to have perfect prose; just what feels true.

2

AI writes a draft

Our AI weaves your words into a warm, dignified narrative that reflects your loved one's unique spirit—no stiff templates, no robotic phrases, just their story.

3

You refine it

Edit, add, or trim until it feels just right. You're in control, and we're here to help you honor the life they lived.
