For information on submitting an obituary, please contact Reading Eagle by phone at 610-371-5018, or email at obituaries@readingeagle.com or fax at 610-371-5193.
Most obituaries published in the Reading Eagle are submitted through funeral homes and cremation services, but we will accept submissions from families. Obituaries can be emailed to obituaries@readingeagle.com.
In addition to the text of the obituary, any photographs that you wish to include can be attached to this email. Please put the text of the obituary in a Word document, a Google document or in the body of the email. The Reading Eagle also requires a way to verify the death, so please include either the phone number of the funeral home or cremation service that is in charge of the deceased’s care or a photo of his/her death certificate. We also request that your full name, phone number and address are all included in this email.
All payments by families must be made with a credit card. We will send a proof of the completed obituary before we require payment. The obituary cannot run, however, until we receive payment in full.
Obituaries can be submitted for any future date, but they must be received no later than 3:00 p.m. the day prior to its running for it to be published.
Please call the obituary desk, at 610-371-5018, for information on pricing.

The Berks County Career and Technology Center has been awarded a $140,000 grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
The grant through the PAsmart Advance Grant program was announced by state Rep. Eric Weaknecht, a Lower Heidelberg Township Republican.
“This grant will help create more opportunities for students to gain hands-on experiences and develop necessary skills for a successful career in STEM, computer science and more,” Weaknecht said. “I’m proud to see investments being made in our students and future workforce.”
The grant program offers up to $500,000 to support large, cross‑sector partnerships that expand access to high‑quality computer science and STEM career and technical education, officials said. The funding helps programs reach more students and adult learners through opportunities like dual enrollment, industry credentials, work‑based learning, apprenticeships and out‑of‑school experiences. These grants also aim to increase the number of certified or highly qualified CS and STEM educators.
