I don't make the death notice (or obituary) an event. I use it as a source
for the death and/or burial. The newspaper article is not an event but it
does document the death  and possibly the funeral (and funeral home where
the records could be located) the  burial date and cemetery where records
could be located, and other information such as the minister, church the
person attended etc. The source would contain the newspaper and article
details  such as newspaper title, location where published date, page and
column of the article and where it can be found to review again.
