They are The age and name of the deceased, the survivors, the preceded by, and the Services location. What are other parts we often see in non-traditional and other obituaries today? - DNatureofDTrain

You forgot the picture - which usually is not how the deceased looks like. :P

I think one legitimate reason is that older people tend not to have recent pictures. The older generation does not like to take pictures so the only one someone from that generation would have would be the first and only shot when they were e.g. a teenager. Dating?

I never thought of it that way, it maybe the only picture they could find of them too, or they want to be remembered as forever young. - DNatureofDTrain

Yes, and I often see poetry, psalms, and tiny stories or drawings or art posted with them here too. Thanks for sharing - DNatureofDTrain
