Most newspapers are now printed online. Just go online and get a copy of it there.

Maybe ask the funeral home to put you one aside? Or you might know of someone else who going to the later service that might could pick you up an extra. Were you close to the family, would you be able to ask any of them to pick you up an obituary? Good luck!

Why did they give you an Obituary? Did they not have them? Call the Funeral home and ask them to hold one for you.

I would ask someone who is at the funeral to get one for me. There may be some left and available after the funeral but it is hard to say.

Call the funeral home and ask that they keep one set aside for you...They only order a certain amount and when they are gone you won't be able to get one

Some funeral homes have web sites now. Maybe check into that.

why do you think you need to have an obituary of the person? will you lose sleep if you don't have one. just ask your mom to get you an extra one.

They give the ones left to the family.

the funeral homes normally will give the excess (if available) to the family, so you might want to ask the family for one.

The extras are usually given to the family to do with what they wish. My suggestion would be to call some one and have them pick you up one.
Sorry to hear about the friend.
May God Bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
