What would you want your obituary to say about you?
We agree, its not the cheeriest question weve ever asked you.
Bear with us. Youd be surprised to read the responses we received when we posed that question to Giles Coren, Lionel Shriver, Cat Marnell, Arianna Huffington and others in the June issue, on sale now.
You got involved too. We asked you to Tweet us your obituaries.
The results were very funny.
Youll find a few entries from team ELLE too...
