SHARE A LIFE STORY

The passing of our friends and family has a profound influence on us. Life Story is a place where you can tell their stories.

Submissions should be 600 words and must include a facial photo, in high-resolution jpeg format.

The stories themselves should be full of colour and character to inform our readers of the special place the person had in your life.

There is no payment or charge for a Life Story.

The subject must have an Ottawa connection and should have died within the previous year. Stories will be edited for style.

Please include the name, age, cause of death, place of birth and place of death. Also include your contact information in case we need to reach you.

Email submissions to lifestory@ottawacitizen.com.
