Discussion

•  Support. But where were these obits initially published? Nomen ad hoc (talk) 09:47, 27 June 2020 (UTC).

it seems to me that, unlike Legacy.com, these obituaries are exclusively published on the website as part of a package deal with the undertakers that are part of the franchise behind the website. 1Veertje (talk) 16:17, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
