Obituaries are important news within a community, and they provide information so that community members can show support to the family. The Lansing Journal works with funeral homes to publish obituaries with photos in our online edition right away. We can also include the information in our upcoming monthly print issue for $100. Arrangements can be made with the funeral home or directly with us—contact info@thelansingjournal.com.
