There is no law that you have to put an obituary in a paper. However, in settling the estate, you do have to advertise for those that the deceased may owe money to. In some places an obituary can serve as notice.

There is no legal requirement to publish an obituary in a local paper. It is a personal choice made by the deceased's family or loved ones. Many people choose to publish obituaries as a way to inform the community of the death and to honor the deceased.
