Publishing obituaries is a critical public service that, in many communities, has died with the shuttering of the local newspapers. It’s important to highlight the stories of the people who lived, worked, raised families, started businesses and volunteered in our community because they helped to make the community what it is today.
That is why OCN publishes obituaries free of charge. We’ve made it easy to submit an obituary for a loved one. Simply click the button below and fill out the form. We’ll publish the obituary here. OCN’s hope is that this service helps in our mission to connect the community.
