Relationship Obits

Kathleen Horan, a reporter at WNYC, founded relationshipobit.com when after a difficult breakup with her boyfriend, her father passed away two weeks later. As she was writing her father's obituary, Kathleen recognized how helpful it was to have a place to celebrate that life, recognise the survivors, and put things to rest. She began to wonder what it would be like to write another obituary - this time for the death of her relationship. How it would be remembered. Cause of death. Surivors (if any). Date of birth and the date it breathed it's last. Thus "Relationship Obits" was born. "Relationship Obits" is more than just a book for people who've been burned by love (although who hasn't). It's a celebration of love, a recognition that we all go through the end of relationships and just as much as love is a huge part of life, so is loss of that love.
