I would suggest changing the dark grey font color of the obituary blurbs because you cannot read it next to the black background. Or change the black background to a lighter color. I checked a few and didn’t even know it was there until the 4th person. I’m using my phone if that makes a difference. Otherwise, great idea and looking forward to reading the rest once I can see them.

I hear you, Burr. I'm sorry to say the captions are only visible on a laptop or desktop -- and even then only with a workaround. The techies at Wordpress promise a solution to this problem.

In the meantime, if you don't have a computer, you can at least see the names of each person if you click on either the circle or the square beneath each individual picture.

Thank you, and I won't be a Christmas Grinch and complain about trivial matters.

Ok, the "Happiness Engineers" (that's their official title) fixed the technical problem, and you should be able to read the captions on a smart phone now. To do so (or to see the full captions on a computer), you have to click on the circle with the i in the middle.
