One Guestbook.
Professional Screening.
Triple Interaction.

Batesville and the expansive network powering newspaper obituary sections across North America have come together in an exclusive partnership to create ObitLink. 

Through this partnership, ObitLink connects your online guestbooks with your local newspapers’ guestbooks, delivering a seamless experience no other funeral home website provider can offer.

Give your families the best guestbook experience available. With ObitLink, they won’t have to visit multiple locations to receive all their condolences, and you won’t have to screen for inappropriate messages. Well-trained professional screeners scour them for you, detecting even the most obscure references and slang terms.

Never let a condolence go unread.

  • ObitLink includes guestbook entries from the newspaper with yours to create a single guestbook experience for the family.
  • By streamlining newspaper and funeral home online guestbooks into one, ObitLink ensures families won’t miss a single condolence.
