Local Newspapers Continue Weekly Family-Submitted Death Notices with Permanent Online Memorials

Each printed notice now includes a dedicated memorial page on funeral-notices.co.uk

Overview

  • Mid-August editions of regional titles reported weekly death-notice totals ranging from four in the Norwich Evening News to 31 in the Eastern Daily Press.
  • Notices are submitted by families and appear with name, date of death, age, brief biography, funeral details and optional cause-of-death context.
  • All notices are archived permanently online and linked to interactive pages where friends and relatives can leave condolences, photos and charitable donations.
  • A syndication partnership with funeral-notices.co.uk launched in April centralizes notices from multiple papers into a single digital archive.
  • Some weekly summaries are credited to USA Today under a subscriber partnership, expanding distribution and standardizing content across titles.
