The obits are published as they are turned in by the mortuary. They include the information that the families want in them. Families have to pay to have the obits in the paper which also means that some will have longer obits, others will cut to the bare bones information. Karen

But should they require that "bare bones" include the date? I would think the date is more important to include than the age.
