Writing an obituary is one of the most personal acts of remembrance a person can offer. It is a final tribute, a story shared with the world, and a way to honor someone’s life in just a few paragraphs. But for many families, it feels impossible to do, especially in the middle of grief.
Where do you start? What do you include? How do you capture a lifetime in a few short lines?
These are the questions we heard again and again from people going through loss. That is why we built SageLink AI™, the obituary writing companion inside BestFarewell.
SageLink AI™ was created to help you find the words when you are not sure what to say. It begins by asking simple, thoughtful questions about your loved one’s personality, their career, the things they cared about most. From there, it crafts a full obituary that feels true, meaningful, and written with care. You can adjust the tone, include special memories, and even highlight achievements or life lessons they shared.
One of the most touching things we have seen is how funeral homes are now recommending SageLink AI™ to families. Many directors tell us they have seen how overwhelmed families become when they are asked to write an obituary on their own. They are relieved to have a resource that offers guidance, compassion, and clarity in a moment that often feels foggy.
And it is not just helpful, it is practical. You can export the finished obituary as a PDF, share it with your family, or post it directly to a BestFarewell Memorial Page to honor your loved one in a lasting way.
You do not need to be a writer to say something beautiful. You only need to care enough to want to try. SageLink AI™ takes care of the rest.
