NEWSPAPERS
One of the major goals at the Sorenson-Lockwood Funeral Home is to make arrangements easier for the families that we serve.  With the help of technology we are able to provide information for families before they come to the Funeral Home.

Due to the local newspaper being a weekly publication, a person may find death notices in the Bay City Times and Traverse City Record Eagle.  

CARDS OF THANKS
This is an insertion in the paper where you thank people that helped you during your time of need. Typically people thank their Doctors, Nurses and friends.

OBITUARIESThis details the personal data, background, funeral details as well as the survivors of the deceased.


IN MEMORIAMSThis generally states the deceased's name and the date of passing. It is not uncommon for survivors to include a short poem that fits the occassion.

DEATH NOTICE
The death notice gives detail about where the person passed on, who is survivied by them and the location and date of the funeral.
