Obits For All
At Louisville Magazine, we believe in Obits For All. Those who’ve lived their last day deserve that honor. Those with plenty of days left deserve the honor of reading about them.
 
We’ll publish obituaries co-authored by you and family and friends and colleagues — by those who loved the person our city has lost. Where were they a regular? Where did they take visitors? What’s something you did together in Louisville that you’ll never forget?

You don't have to answer every question, though you certainly can. Write a paragraph, a sentence, a single word. We want you to be able to share your memories that would otherwise go untold. Everybody's words, together, will become the obit.

Every Louisvillian needs an obituary.
