I was sure that writing obituaries was never a healthy, healing thing for a person to do. My two friends changed my views of all of this.

I do it to remember the best parts of who they were and the many ways that they influenced my life for the better. It may sound a little silly, but writing obituaries isn't something I mind doing at all.<br><br>
