For funeral homes:
Submitting obituaries is easy through our online service. Through this service, you will be able to compose a notice, add a photo or graphic and present a proof and cost to the family while you are meeting with them. This service also allows you to place an obituary in multiple publications at once.
For families placing an obituary:
If you have any questions, you may email us at obits@news-journal.com seven days a week, or give us a call at (903) 232-7239 on weekdays during working hours. A staff member will call you once we receive the notice.
All notices submitted will be available for viewing in print and on our website. Deadline for all notices is 1 p.m. the day before publication.
By sharing a fond memory or writing a kind tribute, you will be providing a comforting keepsake to those in mourning. If you have an existing account with this site, you may log in with that below. Otherwise, you can create an account by clicking on the Log in button below, and then register to create your account.
