Well, I can think of one place and that would be old newspapers if they listed obituaries like they do today. Personally, I am going to make it a point not to have mine listed.

I've noticed that many of the geneology sites have extracts and/or listings for various years, sorted by state/city -- vitals like marriages, births, obits. You could start with geneology.com and search related sites.

I too am looking for an obituary from the listings in San Francisco. The person that I am looking for is Rosetta Felter or Felder. The year might be around 1950's. She was a musician and played the violin. She was originally from Shreveport, Louisiana. Is there anyone who can give me any info on this? Thanks loads.
