Obituaries: The Original Social Media

Now, before you start scrolling through your Instagram feed, hear me out. Obituaries, they're the original social media. They're where we go to find out who's left us, who's joining the big party in the sky, if you will. And just like your Facebook feed, they're full of updates - who they were, what they did, who they left behind.

Take old Mr. Thompson, for instance. His obit read like a comedy sketch. "Loved ones remember him for his quick wit, his love of a good joke, and his ability to fall asleep anywhere, anytime." I mean, who among us hasn't tried to nap through a boring meeting? Rest in peace, Mr. Thompson, you legend.

Cockwell's: The Obituary Experts

Now, Cockwell's Funeral Service, they're the obituary experts. They've been around since the 19th century, so they know a thing or two about life, death, and everything in between. They're like the wise old grandpa who's seen it all, and he's got some great stories to tell.

They've seen obituaries that'll make you laugh, like the one that ended with, "He was a man of few words, and those few words were usually profanity." Or the one that simply said, "She loved her family, her friends, and her dogs. Not necessarily in that order." I mean, who among us can't relate to that?

Obituaries: The Family History Channel

Take my great-aunt Mabel, for instance. Her obit revealed she was a suffragette, a secret agent in World War II, and a published poet. I mean, who knew?
