The Obituary App notifies you of the posting of any obituaries from your selected list of cities or contacts. You can receive alerts for obituaries in the city where you grew up, went to school, worked or currently reside -- as many cities as you wish to follow.

Once you download The Obituary App, connect your Facebook contacts, phone contacts, and select as many cities as you want. You may choose whether to be notified automatically of any new obituary posted that fits your personal criteria. You can also quickly and easily search obituaries throughout the U.S. by name or city or browse through your own feed at your convenience.

No longer do you have to subscribe to multiple newspapers, search the web for death notices in multiple cities or search out funeral home websites to find the obits that are important to you. Many of us rely on obituaries to let us know when a distant family member or friend has passed.

Obituaries are sometimes the only way we learn of fallen soldiers or when our relationships might be affected by a death close to them. The same is true for those we care about in our community. It’s easy, it’s free, it’s valuable information.
