Did she ever do something completely spontaneous that others might find really out there?

What is the most thoughtful thing she's ever done?

What are her favorite things? Does she collect anything?

Does she have any peeves that pertain only to her?

Does she have any habits that you all have noticed?

I wouldn't say any of these things would be a way to make fun OF her but to show what kind of person she was. The link posted above is an example of a fun obituary that really lets you know what kind of person she was.
