These are published notices of death and accompanying biographical details provided by or with the consent of McGhee-Givnish Funeral Home. They serve as a public record announcing someone’s passing, often including information about the deceased’s life, family, and funeral or memorial service arrangements. As an example, a notice might detail the life of a community member served by McGhee-Givnish, their achievements, and the scheduled time and location for their memorial.
The dissemination of these notices holds significant value for several reasons. They inform the community of a death, allowing friends, acquaintances, and former colleagues to offer condolences and support to the bereaved family. They provide a historical record for genealogical research and are a means of celebrating the life of the deceased. Historically, these announcements were often printed in newspapers, but increasingly, funeral homes offer online platforms for broader accessibility and permanence.
