An obituary typically ranges from 150 to 300 words, providing a concise yet comprehensive overview of the deceased's life. It should include key details such as their full name, age, date of birth and death, significant life events, accomplishments, and surviving family members. While brevity is important, the obituary should also capture the essence of the individual and their impact on others.
