One day, my boss learned that a local business owner passed away and wanted me to write his obituary. So I looked up the business he owned, Netts Floral Co., to talk to someone there about him. I got a hold of his daughter, who now owns the business, and chatted with her about the business and what kind of man her father was. I learned in this conversation how to be compassionate and understanding while still getting the information I needed for the story.
I approached the story with the angle of him being a local business owner and concentrated on what kind of businessman he was.
