Notice on the resumption of the printing of obituaries in The Criterion newspaper

The publication of obituaries in The Criterion was suspended after our March 20 issue. This was because of the challenges of the staff of The Criterion working from their homes due to shelter-in-place orders related to the coronavirus pandemic.

As these orders have begun to be relaxed, The Criterion is resuming the publication of obituaries in this issue.

We received many obituary notices during the shutdown and will publish them in the coming weeks, beginning with the deceased whose death dates back the farthest and going forward to those who died more recently.

In addition to publishing the obituaries of members of archdiocesan parishes, we will also publish the obituaries of members of religious communities based in the archdiocese, of religious who served in central and southern Indiana and of the parents of archdiocesan priests that we received during the shutdown. †
