If interested in having an obituary emailed to you, please email us and we will send it to you as soon as possible. We can only email up to 10 per month per person.

Remember, some obituaries may just show the date of death. When requesting give us the exact information shown on the entire line. If emailing, please copy and paste that line. There may be times that it takes a couple of weeks to get your obituary either in the mail or via email. If you have not received your obituary within three weeks, please send a "second request" email.
The city is shown if there is a city listed in the obituary. The city does not necessarily reflect the place of death but usually the residence. If blank and shows “SR,” probably Hot Springs.

Classmates Obituaries
We have some yearbooks on the site and are beginning to show "classmates obituaries" to connect with people who have passed who are included in those yearbooks. If you have an obituary for someone listed in the yearbook section that you would like included, please scan and email it to the webmaster. Many of these are from the Sentinel-Record. These are links to the ones we have posted thus far. Don't forget to support your local newspaper - the Sentinel-Record.
