Obituary
An obituary (or death notice) is a respectful public announcement written by the family or the funeral service provider to inform the community, friends, and acquaintances of a person’s passing. More than just a formal notification, it serves as a primary official tribute and provides essential details regarding the upcoming funeral arrangements.
Why Publish an Obituary?
In a diverse and sprawling area like the Greater Montreal Area, an obituary serves a vital social purpose:
- Informing the Community: It helps reach extended circles (colleagues, former neighbors, long-time friends).
- Sharing Funeral Details: It provides the dates, times, and locations for visitations, memorial services, or burials at any of our sites.
- Suggesting Tributes: It is the ideal place to mention if the family prefers donations to local charities in lieu of flowers.
- Telling a Story: A well-crafted obituary highlights significant milestones and celebrates the unique legacy of the deceased.
Mount Royal Commemorative Services assists you in the drafting and distribution of this tribute. We ensure optimal visibility on our digital platforms as well as in local and national newspapers. We help families throughout the metropolitan area find the right words to honor their loved ones while simplifying communication with their community.
