Honoring Your Loved Ones

freelance obituary writer
Obituary writer Hannah Sentenac.


My name is Hannah Sentenac, and I’m an experienced freelance obituary writer who specializes in penning touching, unique memorials for people (and pets) who have passed.

As a professional wordsmith, capturing the remarkable essence of an individual is my passion.

It’s an honor to write these obituaries, and each is truly one-of-a-kind.

I learn all about the one who has passed, and use that detailed information to write a heartfelt, poignant, creative, and eloquent memorial.

My obituaries capture the essence of the individual in a way that nothing else can, and writing them is something I’m incredibly passionate about.

Experienced Freelance Obituary Writer


I’m trained in journalism and have written for dozens of publications, websites, and major clients. I’ve worked for the Huffington Post, Red Bull, Paste Magazine, Wine Enthusiast, the Miami New Times, Live Happy Magazine, and many, many more.

I’m also a member of the Society of Professional Obituary Writers.

I’ve used my extensive experience as a reporter and copywriter to create a completely unique style as a freelance obituary writer.

When you read a memorial that I’ve written, you’ll never forget it. You can check out samples of my obituaries here.

My remembrances are truly exceptional. They’re ideal for submitting to a local publication, reading at a funeral service or life celebration, or gifting to someone who’s lost their beloved.

Contact me below if you’d like me to craft a special remembrance for your family member, friend, pet, or other loved one. I’ll get right back to you with a pricing sheet outlining my obituary and/or portrait packages.
