Oobituary: to have loved but not lost…
                           For not even death can do our loved ones apart;
                           The ones who were dear, the ones who were a part
                           Of our happiness and grief, of our rise and fall,
                           They will be resurrected whenever we recall!
            What would you not do to restore to life the ones you have lost to death? I am not talking about voodoo or some black magic. I am talking about obituaries. These are small memoirs or biographical sketches of the deceased ones which are usually published in newspapers. These may also be in the form of a notice about an upcoming funeral or death anniversary, with details about the subject.

            Death is a loss that cannot be reimbursed, but it is inevitable and it is the truth of life. One cannot escape it. So mourning it will only increase the pain. Instead, by reliving the good old times and cherishing the best of the memories, we can make the distant souls rest in peace. 
            They might have left never to return, but their memories are there to linger. An obituary is the only way of paying reverence and expressing our affection for them, to preserve what is left of them, to make them immortal. 
The advent of technology has made it even easier to make our tribute through online obituary services. Life goes on and for those who have an overly busy schedule; these services have proven to be a boon.
