First solve the name confusion
Why Leeside Obituaries Now Appear Under Callaham-Hicks & Leeside
Leeside Funeral Home was established in October 2020 by Thomas J. Lee. The current official website explains that on February 10, 2023, Lee acquired Callaham-Hicks Funeral Home and merged the two businesses.
The resulting entity is now identified as Callaham-Hicks & Leeside Funeral Home LLC. That is why a search for an older “Leeside Funeral Home” name leads to a current website carrying both names.

How to Find a Specific Leeside Funeral Home Obituary
-
1
Open the official obituary directory

The memorial page provides more useful information than the short obituary-list preview.

Before you leave home
Viewing, Funeral and Interment May Be at Different Places
Current Leeside memorials show why the funeral-home address should not automatically become your destination.
A family may hold a public viewing at 228 North Dean Street, a celebration of life at a church in Spartanburg or Roebuck, and interment at a separate cemetery.
Eight things to confirm
Official memorials show families using the Dean Street funeral home for viewing while holding the main service at churches in Spartanburg, Roebuck or Inman and burial at locations such as Heritage Memorial Gardens, Roselawn Memorial Gardens or Lincoln Memorial Gardens.
Support the family
Guestbook, Photos, Candles, Flowers and Memorial Trees
Guestbook
The online memorial can let friends and relatives post condolences and memories.
Photos and candles
The current guestbook interface can allow visitors to add photographs and light a virtual candle with their post.
Flowers or memorial tree
Many individual obituary pages provide Send Flowers and Plant a Tree options.
A family may publish a specific memorial preference. Follow the individual family’s instructions rather than assuming flowers are always preferred.
What should you write in the guestbook?
A short personal message is enough. A specific memory, a sentence about what the person meant to you or a simple expression of sympathy is more useful than a long generic paragraph.
Two different email tools
Obituary Alerts vs. Grief-Support Emails
Obituary Mailing List
The funeral home states that subscribers receive an email notification within about an hour after it posts an obituary or death notice.
The service is complimentary, and the mailing-list page states that the address is not shared with third parties.
Weekly Grief Messages
This is a different service. The funeral home promotes one year of weekly grief messages intended to provide comfort after a loss.
Use obituary alerts when you are waiting for a new notice; use grief messages when you want ongoing bereavement support.
A simple official email form specifically for new obituary and death-notice notifications.
