I think it is ridiculous that you have to pay to read an obituary of a relative in your area.

This is absolutely absurd! If your newspaper cannot stay in business without charging to read an obituary, then you need to go out of business. What an injustice to families and friends of those who have passed.

How humorous! I always knew newspapers in Northwest Arkansas were ignorant and biased. That's why I won't
even accept a free copy. There is no sense in trying to make a buck off other people's sorrow. Just another link in the broken downward spiral of greed and sorry editors and newspapers. Thanks...no thanks. DD

I agree , to pay to read about a loved one that has passed is way out of line. I am lucky to be in Texas !
