Searching for Obituaries?

By aajay1073 | 5:12 PM MST, Tue February 26, 2008

Does anyone have a good source for old newspaper Obituaries? I am looking for an obituary that would have been posted about six years ago.

Also, has anyone ever used this service:
http://oa.newsbank.com/oa-search/we/Archives/

The site charges per obituary and I wanted to find out if it was worth it before purchasing. Also, wanted to make sure the site was reputable.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Angie Godina

Just a thought. but Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness:
http://www.raogk.org/listing.htm has folks all over that will go to the
city in question and either go to a graveyard and take photos or
possibly look up obituaries from the local libraries microfilms. Or you
could just call the city in question and request a specific obituary if
you have the date.
