A local newspaper has announced the launch of a new online obituary feature, making it easier for families to commemorate their loved ones. This new option will be available starting December 20, 2025, through the newspaper’s website.
The purpose of the online obituary feature is to provide a convenient platform for families to share information about the deceased, including details on services and memorials. Families can submit obituaries directly, allowing for quicker publication and wider access.
The newspaper’s editorial team will oversee the new service to ensure that all submissions meet editorial standards. Local funeral homes are encouraged to use this feature for their clients, enhancing communication with the community.
Previously, obituaries were primarily published in print, limiting access to those who received the physical newspaper. This new online feature is expected to reach a broader audience, allowing friends and relatives from distant locations to pay their respects.
To submit an obituary, families can visit the newspaper’s website from December 20 onward. Submission guidelines will be provided online, and families are encouraged to reach out to the newspaper for assistance with the process.
