Above is my Obituary that I had to write for Leslie's death.

For when she died we had to choose a random date because it did not state it in the book.

Writing it was not that difficult if you knew exactly what happened because we just read up to the part where they said that Leslie had died but not how she died, so all the teacher said is that she drowned. Only some of us knew how she drowned so it was easier for us. (the rope snapped and she drowned in the water)

This was a fun activity because we got kind of feel like we were her parents and seeing their perspective when writing this.
