Journal Writing Prompt: Though it is a good idea to use the active voice whenever possible, some styles of writing do use the passive voice. For example, an obituary (a mini biography about someone who died) uses the passive voice to share details of the person's life. For this module's journal, write a short obituary of 5 sentences using the passive voice. You could choose someone famous or even a family member or friend who you would like to remember.
Example
