Why ObitsUtah

All across the nation as newspaper advertising volumes have dropped we have seen obituary rates increase to $300 to over a $1,000 a day to cover this loss of revenue. For this reason the Utah Funeral Directors Association and leading Funeral Homes in the state have joined together to bring you, www.ObitsUtah.com . We are dedicated in delivering the most current information to families and friends who have lost loved ones.

Unlike newspaper obituaries which charge for everyday they run an obituary, ours is a flat fee of only $30 and will run on the obituary listing from the day it is listed until one week after the funeral service. For example, if you place an obituary on Monday the 1st and the funeral is on Saturday the 6th, it will run until midnight on Saturday the 13th. After that obituaries will be available to you, your family, and friends in our free searchable archives.

Our service includes:

• They run for over a week on the main pages not only one day as in the newspapers.
• Obituaries will be available to you, your family, and friends in our searchable archives.
• Obituaries includes a life story, and a photo or clipart.
• A newpaper style printout is available for a keepsake.
• An online memory book is provided, where friends and family can send online condolences.
