# Obituary, eulogy and memorial card builder Create three obituary lengths, a spoken eulogy and a printable memorial card privately, with editable drafts and optional AI rewriting. > Canonical page: https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/obituary-eulogy-and-memorial-card-builder - **Category:** Document Tools - **Keywords:** Obituary, eulogy and memorial card builder ## Overview ## Write and review Create short, standard and extended notices from supplied facts, plus a relationship-sensitive eulogy and teleprompter. Partial dates (YYYY or YYYY-MM) are supported; unknown details remain omitted and age is never inferred. ## Keep control Edit every draft. Add a photo locally, print the card or save it as PDF through your browser, and export TXT, DOCX or ZIP. Browser drafts are not automatically saved and no public links are created. ## Optional AI AI receives text only after explicit consent; photos stay local. Review every generated fact before sharing. AI requests may be temporarily held in the server job queue and are subject to the provider’s data policy. ## Inputs - **Full name** (text) - **Birth date** (text) - **Death date** (text) - **Age (only if supplied)** (text) - **Ceremony details** (textarea) - **Life story** (textarea) - **Personal memories** (textarea) - **Your relationship** (select) - **Language** (select) - **Mode** (select) - **I agree to send these text fields to the AI provider.** (checkbox) ## When to use - Preparing a short death notice and a fuller ceremony tribute from the same facts, then manually editing each to the publisher's word limit. - Preparing a spoken eulogy tailored to your specific personal or professional relationship with the deceased. - Creating a printable memorial keepsake card with a locally placed photo without publishing private details to the web. ## How it works - Enter the name and any known birth/death dates, age, ceremony details, life story and personal memories. Leave unknown facts blank. - Choose Family, Friend or Colleague and the template language, then use the generate button to assemble the drafts locally in your browser. - Optionally consent to text transmission and use the separate Rewrite with AI action. Review its candidate before applying it. - Review and edit the five text drafts. Export their text as TXT or DOCX, or download the ZIP; print the memorial card or save that card as PDF through the browser. ## Use cases - Ceremony planning: Enter biographical notes and ceremony specifics once to output program inserts, short newspaper notices, and extended service text simultaneously. - Eulogy delivery: Generate speaking points shaped by your relationship role, then adjust the pacing and teleprompter draft for service delivery. - Memorial keepsake printing: Populate ceremony dates, position a personal photograph locally in the browser, and print or export cards as PDF. ## Frequently asked questions ### Does the tool automatically compute age from birth and death dates? No. Age is never inferred; it only appears in drafts if explicitly entered into the 'Age (only if supplied)' field. ### Are uploaded photographs sent to an AI service or cloud server? No. Photographs remain local to your browser for previewing, printing, and PDF creation, even when AI rewriting mode is enabled. ### What can I export? TXT and DOCX contain the five text drafts, including card copy but not the photo-card layout. ZIP includes five TXT files, a DOCX and the printable card HTML. Only the card has the built-in browser print/save-as-PDF action. ### Does the builder save my drafts if I close the tab? No. Browser drafts are not saved automatically, and no persistent public URLs are generated. Export your drafts before closing the session. ### How does the 'Your relationship' setting change the output? It modifies the tone, perspective, and introductory framing of the spoken eulogy draft based on whether you select Family, Friend, or Colleague. ### Do local drafting and API calls have the same privacy boundary? Browser template generation does not send the form text to the server. Optional AI rewriting sends text after consent; requests may temporarily enter the server queue and are subject to the provider's retention policy. Photos stay in the browser. API calls necessarily send their supplied text to the server. ### Does choosing a language translate all my notes? No. Local generation changes the fixed headings and template phrases, but preserves your life story and memories as entered. Supply those notes in the intended language. The three notice variants may be equally short when biography or memories are missing; they have no fixed word-count guarantee. ## Related tools - [Fitness Workout PDF Generator](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/fitness-workout-pdf-generator): Generate a printable workout-plan PDF from JSON or CSV data with exercise tables, progress boxes, and optional QR video links - [PDF Multipage Form Mock](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/pdf-multipage-form-mock): Create printable multi-page form mocks with text fields, checkboxes, and signature areas - [PDF Receipt / Ticket Generator](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/pdf-receipt-ticket): Create a thermal-width receipt PDF with bold title and QR code - [PDF Basic Document Generator (PDF基础文档生成器)](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/pdf-basic-text-doc): Create PDF documents with text, paragraphs, headers, footers, and page numbers - [PDF Checklist Form](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/pdf-checklist-form): Generate printable checklist/task form PDF with pseudo checkboxes and text - [PDF Poster Maker](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/pdf-poster-maker): Create poster/flyer PDF templates with headline, background image, gradients, and CTA button text - [Glitch Text](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/glitch-text): Create a glitchy / corrupted look by replacing each letter with neighbouring broken Unicode glyphs — Cyrillic/Greek look-alikes, block elements (█▓▒░), geometric shapes — for a flat smashed data-corruption aesthetic.
