This is what the burial and obituary look like in the facts section:

Obit1

The burial and obituary are both linked to the same source entry.

The obituary is a custom fact:

Obit2

I have attached the scan of the part of the newspaper to the obituary fact. And the source entry has the transcription of the actual newspaper.

Is this a satisfactory way to associate an obituary article with a person?

It is a pity that using the Ancestry app it doesn't seem to show the source transcription text.:
