Sue, the Vigo County Public Library will do that for you.

If you can find your people in the online obituary index, that will speed
matters up:
http://165.138.44.12/
However, they can also find obits in years not online.

http://165.138.44.12/obits/obitform.htm
This explains the procedures for ordering copies of obits. When you
consider time, travel, etc., it is well worth it. I have had to pay as much
as $10.00 to get an obit from a Genealogical Society in another state, so
this is a bargain in comparison.
