The database is located here and has a basic search function which searches last name, first name and year obit appeared in a newspaper and an advanced search which adds fields for maiden name, nick name, year of birth, etc. to help cut down the number of hits. This is a wonderful resource of very valuable information which you can use at no cost.   If you find something you are interested in, you can request a copy of the obit at a cost of five dollars for one or ten dollars for up to five.   The library cannot process requests for more than five at a time.   The online form for requesting obits really isn't online.   You must print it out and mail it the usual way.
