I think it just goes to show you it's all about money, because you know that most people are going to want the obituary done so they will pay for it!! One more reason I won't subscribe to the Times Mail! I think people paying for the subcription ARE already paying to have obituaries printed of the people in the town where they live. I think it's a shame that as small a community as we are, our local newspaper can't help us stay closer by keeping people aware of losses in the community in a more complete way. It makes it so impersonal- like nobody really cares anymore. Just my thoughts. Paula - Lawrence County, Indiana
