This editorial is the opinion of Morgan Hill Life


At Morgan Hill Life, we understand the importance of cherishing and commemorating the lives of our community members. We recently started working with Legacy, a renowned platform that allows us to publish obituaries both in print and online, ensuring a wider reach and lasting tribute to our loved ones.

An obituary serves as more than just a notice of passing. It is an opportunity to celebrate a person’s journey, reflect on their achievements, and share their impact on the lives of others. In these written memorials, we can capture the essence of an individual’s spirit, their passions, and the meaningful connections they forged throughout their lifetime. It is a beautiful way to honor their memory and offer solace to grieving families and friends.

By teaming up with Legacy, we are able to extend our reach beyond print publication. We now have the means to share significant stories with a broader audience, reaching not only our local readers but also individuals beyond the South Valley who may have been touched by the life of the deceased.

Each person’s journey is unique, filled with accomplishments, milestones, and moments that have shaped them into who they were. By offering obituary services at a cost of $1 per word, we provide a space where these stories can be told with the depth and richness they deserve.

In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” Let us come together as a community to celebrate the lives that have touched us, to honor their contributions, and to find solace in the stories that endure.
