There is no cost to place an announcement in the Akron Jewish News.

An obituary contains information that includes the deceased’s work history, community involvement, military history, hobbies, spouse/significant other, children, and other surviving relatives. These are primarily biographical information, but you are welcome to include an anecdote to illustrate the deceased’s personality.

You will be contacted by email to preview the obituary.

Families may choose to write their own announcements, which can be e-mailed to lifecycles@akronjn.org or included in the Special notes section below.
