The distinction between obituaries and memorialization

From Love to Know about death and dying | a year ago. 

What is the difference between obituaries and memorialization?

Obituaries are short stories written announcing the person's death, schedule of interment, place of viewing and his immediate relatives.  They used to be published at the newspapers;  most of them are in the internet now.

Memorialization are small gatherings of friends and relatives where the deceased is remembered by speeches, eulogies, pictures, memorial displays,  and even audio visual presentation.  You must have a guide on what to say during eulogies - dos and donts - what to say and not to say.
