Partnership With Carrillo Funeral Homes Expands Community Access to Modern Memorialization
Dallas–Fort Worth, TX – Chptr, the media and technology platform that helps funeral homes distribute service information through trusted local television and publisher channels, today announced the launch of its first Spanish-language broadcast stations, partnering with Telemundo to bring televised memorial announcements to the Dallas–Fort Worth community. The launch marks a major milestone in Chptr’s nationwide rollout and expands access to dignified, community-centered memorialization for Spanish-speaking families across one of the country’s largest media markets.
Here’s a link to the first Spanish‑language memorial video that aired in the market:
Through this partnership, families served by Carrillo Funeral Homes will now have the opportunity to share meaningful video memorials on Telemundo stations across the Dallas–Fort Worth market, ensuring loved ones’ stories reach extended family, friends, and community members who may otherwise never learn of a passing.
“For many of the families we serve, community connection extends far beyond immediate relatives,” said Ricardo Carrillo, President and Owner of Carrillo Funeral Homes. “This partnership allows us to honor lives in a way that reflects our culture, our values, and the importance of ensuring no one is left out of the story.”
Carrillo Funeral Homes, a long-standing and respected provider in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, is Chptr’s inaugural funeral home partner in the Spanish-language market.
“Serving families means meeting them where they are, in the language they speak and through the media they trust,” said Rehan Choudhry, CEO of Chptr. “Launching our first Spanish- language station is an important step in ensuring more communities feel seen, supported, and connected during moments of loss.”
The Dallas–Fort Worth launch builds on Chptr’s rapid national expansion. The company now serves more than 100 of the 210 primary broadcast television markets in the United States, working with trusted local stations and funeral home partners to modernize how communities are informed, connected, and supported.
Broadcast memorial announcements are concise, obituary-style video notices aired on trusted local television stations. Designed to mirror the role traditional obituaries have long played, they inform the broader community of a passing and service details while bringing added presence and clarity through video. Each broadcast directs viewers back to the funeral home’s website, extending community reach while preserving dignity, trust, and professional control.
As part of its ongoing rollout, Chptr plans to continue expanding into additional Spanish- language and multicultural markets nationwide, reinforcing its commitment to inclusive, community-first memorialization.
