When writing Mom’s obituary, they hurt her a lot.
It is common for family members to write an obituary for a loved one who has died. Most of the time, these pieces are sad and heartfelt, showing how much they loved the person who died.
But not all families want a very positive obituary; some may choose to be honest about the life of their loved one.
Newspapers and websites post obituaries for free, so anyone can read them. This means that they can reach anywhere from a few people to hundreds of people.
One well-known obituary shows how family arguments got worse. The two grown children of Kathleen Dehmlow wrote an obituary for her and shared it with everyone in their community.

At first glance, it looks like a normal tribute, but as you read on, it’s clear that there were unresolved family issues. The ending is especially shocking, but also funny in a strange way.
The obituary was printed in the Redwood Falls Gazette, but it was taken down after getting a lot of negative feedback.
A family member said the obituary was correct, but it was said to be missing a “significant amount of omitted information.” Dwight, a family member who was interviewed, had a different view.
He said that Kathleen had sinned sixty years ago but had admitted it, which is a good reminder that everyone makes mistakes.

Even so, the person who wrote the obituary chose to end on a bad note, which is likely to make a lot of people feel bad. Some people even wondered if the death notice should have been made public at all. The CEO of the newspaper replied that there was no legal reason why it couldn’t be published. He also said that their partners have strict editorial standards and took the concerns seriously by carefully reading the piece.
Now, you’re probably interested in what this strange obituary says. Don’t worry, you can read it now.
