Death Notices from Local Newspapers:
Some time ago, Eldon Sentner approached me about putting abbreviated obituaries in the newsletter for those who had passed away during the week, and which appeared in Island newspapers. I have long wanted to do this, but lacking a volunteer until now, it was too time consuming to do myself. Eldon volunteered, and this is the result. When specified in the obituary, the address for the funeral home's web page will be given, so you can view the full obituary if still on-line. Act fast to see the original obituary, these are only posted to the funeral home web sites for a short time. Obituary indexes will be updated weekly, in the newsletter, and here on the site.
Obituaries beginning June, 2013 will be done by Alice Homer - [email protected]Prior Obits - 2005 Obits - 2006 Obits - 2007 Obits - 2008 Obits - 2009 Obits - 2010 Obits - 2011 Obits - 2012 Obits - 2013 Obits - 2014 Obits - 2015 Obits - 2016 Obits - 2017 Obits - 2018 Obits - 2019 Obits
Centenarians in the Listings
Notes:
1. If you can not get the obit from the funeral home site following June 1, 2013, email Alice at [email protected] and she will send it to you. Obituaries for the current year only are kept.
2. If you see a death notice that mentions PEI in the notice from on or off-Island, please email it to Alice to include it in the weekly listings even if it is a prior notice .
3. If it is older notice, send it to Alice at the above address and she will show some basics in the weekly listing and place the notice in the appropriate year of death notice listing.
