Whenever we lose a near and dear one, it leaves a vacuum in our life. But that does not stop us from commemorating their death to express the feeling of such crucial loss. People choose different modes to express their emotions and announce the funeral ceremonies being held for their loved ones. One of the most popular ways is through Obituary ads in Newspapers.
Since the beginning of newspaper advertising Obituaries have been an important section for all advertisers. In earlier times, making obituary announcements in the newspapers was the best and fastest way of reaching out to distant family members and friends who were not aware of the incident. Nowadays most people do it as a commemoration for their lost loved one or as a tribute, while some publish obituaries to keep an official record of the deceased individuals of their family or descendants.
Obituary ads serve as an important source of information on the people who were the citizens of a particular country or even organisation. They serve as concise historical records of the individuals who ever lived. Even though not many people consider them as mandatory, it is a very common gesture in the Northern region of India as well as the western states.
