We also request that your full name, phone number and address are all included in this email. </p> <p class="modal-text"> All payments by families must be made with a credit card. We will send a proof of the completed obituary before we require payment. The obituary cannot run, however, until we receive payment in full. </p> <p class="modal-text"> Obituaries can be submitted for any future date, but they must be received no later than 3:00 p.m. the
