Question

How can I find a lost friend if I can't remember their name but have other details about them?

Community Answer

You should contact anyone who may have known your friend, such as former classmates, colleagues, or relatives. Since you don't recall their name, connecting with mutual acquaintances is often the most effective method.

Question

How can I find my friend's obituary if I'm having trouble locating it online?

Community Answer

If your friend passed away recently, the obituary might not be published yet, as they are usually written and posted within a week of the death. Additionally, the family may have chosen to keep it private.
