Personally, I do not use an event. I source both the death and burial to the same source (as well as other data from the obituary). I put the actual text into the "Source Text" OR "Source Detail Text". I haven't decided if each obituary is a separate source or if the Newspaper is the Source and each obituary is a detail of that source.
