*Verification of Death*
To publish an obituary, we require the name and phone number of the funeral home or cremation society handling the arrangements. We will contact them during business hours to verify the death. If the deceased’s body was donated to the University of Minnesota Anatomy Bequest Program or a similar program, their phone number is required for verification. Please allow enough time for this, especially during limited weekend hours. Alternatively, a death certificate is acceptable. Only one of these verification options is necessary.
*Guestbook and Outside Websites*
We are not permitted to reference external media sources, guestbooks, or obituaries placed elsewhere when publishing in print and online. However, we may include a website for the funeral home or a family email for contact purposes. Please contact us if you have questions regarding this policy.
**Obituary Process:**
Once your submission is complete, we will send you a proof via fax or email for review prior to publication. The proof will include pricing and scheduled dates. Please review it carefully and notify us of any errors or changes before the obituary appears in the Pioneer Press. Changes cannot be made after publication based on the final proof.
