Are photos included?
To include a picture, you will need to plan an obituary and not a death notice. There is no additional charge to include a picture, however the picture does count toward the total number of lines. In most cases, the picture will add between 5 and 6 lines to the obituary. Our team is happy to put together a proof and supply estimates prior to publication.
