How to Place an Obituary

Click Here to Submit an Obituary Online

After your loved one passes away, you have so many contractual details to deal with, like home, finances, burial and funeral arrangements, the last thing you want to think about is placing an obituary in your local paper, but doing so is very important. A published obituary can be used in many cases with insurance companies and creditors to help prove the official death of a loved one, as well as letting all of your neighbors, friends and loved ones know of the passing in an efficient manner.

Although this may seem like an insurmountable task, The Mountain-Ear can help. We have a simple form to help you get started. We can put it all together into a story format for you. The cost to place an obituary is $25. That includes a photo and 750 words. Need an extended obituary? No problem. We can do that too. We can help make the process as simple as possible, for you and your family. To get your forms, more information and to see examples of published obituaries, please email publisher@themountainear.com.

Celebrating community at Nederland Presbyterian Church




 

 

Dozens of community and church members came together on Sunday, September 19, to enjoy fellowship at a Community Picnic hosted in the garden of the Nederland Community Presbyterian Church.

Mark Stringfellow manned the grill with help from Jeff Yansura, serving up hamburgers and hot dogs for all. Kids had a great time with bubbles, hula hoops, sidewalk chalk art and an old-fashioned cake walk. With the Heritage Days event nearby at the Mining Museum, several visitors made stops at both events, making for a great family-fun day in Nederland.
