| A professional obituary-writing service. |
 |
| Crafting a memorable obituary is an art; Précis professionals
paint portraits with words. Tightly controlled narratives,
rich in color and historical fact, capture the essence of
individuals: their joys, sorrows, triumphs and milestones.
An amusing trait, annoying habit, an unforgettable turn-of-phrase, when
woven into a biography by a skillful writer, brings the loved
one alive on the page. Or in a video. Or in a eulogy. |

What kind of a hat did he wear and why? A black fedora
to cover his newly-seeded hair implants? A Boston Red Sox
cap worn backwards in hopes of reversing his beloved team's
luck? And just how did she sip her tea? Laced with vodka? Like
Queen Elizabeth enduring a tedious state occasion?
Precise details transform a cliché death notice into
a riveting story, one bursting with humor, pathos, gallantry
and valor. It becomes a treasured keepsake, a bit of family
history to enrich and enlighten present and future generations.
Best of all, a compelling end-of-life profile appears on ThePrécis.com — often
in a matter of hours. |
 |
Précis creates memorable obituaries for:
- Grieving families immersed in final arrangements.
- Those wanting control over their own end-of-life arrangements.
- Newspaper editors desiring biographical obituaries about
notable members of the community.
- Family historians documenting the life and accomplishments
of ancestors.
- Those suffering other forms of loss.
Because grief wears many faces, Précis departs from the traditional obituary-writing service by profiling other kinds of loss: the end of a marriage, a job layoff, a rejected manuscript, an atrocity in Darfur, the demise of a beloved pet, a failed romance, a doomed run on American Idol. Whether humorous, pointedly political, or a heartfelt expression of personal remorse, Précis gives voice (within the bounds of good taste) to those who might otherwise remain silent. |
