WISHTV.com has partnered with Tributes.com to provide Obituaries and Death Notices for Indianapolis and Central Indiana.   You can find our obituaries page under News in our main navigation drop-down menu.

Listings are provided by area funeral homes or are collected through publicly available sources.  Friends and family can leave their condolences, share a memory or even “light a candle” as part of their tribute.  Users can also set up email alerts to be automatically notified for death notices by location, family name,  school and military service.

Funeral Homes that are interested in joining Tributes.com’s network can learn more and sign up for a 30 day trial.

Users can also search Tributes.com’s national database to find obituary notices for people nationwide.

Hopefully, everyone is getting back to normal with the blast of winter weather we’ve had the past several days.

You may or may not know that our Community theme for 2009 is “Hoosiers Helping Hoosiers.”  We’re already engaged, but we need more help.

If you know of a need in our community where we can make a difference, please weigh in. If you know of a person or group MAKING a difference helping others, please weigh in.

We’ll have a lot more on this in the coming days, but I wanted to get the ball rolling as soon as possible.

Thanks for your help!

Rough morning today getting downtown. I couldn’t help but notice how folks were pitching in to help each other out, showing a real sense of community, and how some acted like it was any other rush hour morning, passing other cars, totally disregarding the safety of others.

I guess there’s always one… but I’m encouraged about the others that outnumber that “one.”

Lots of good things coming up

Now that Tony Dungy has retired, an important voice in our community goes with him.

Hopefully, his absence won’t leave a void. Hopefully, all his good works have been building blocks.

We’ll soon find out which it will be.

Feel free to share your thoughts, insight, and/or perscpectives from a community standpoint.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I’ll try to check in from time to time to see what’s going on.

Be safe!

Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving weekend!

Hello All!

It’s been awhile since we’ve been online and I’m happy to say that as part of our new website design,  we now have “blog-ability,” which is great!

As we head into this Thanksgiving Week and weekend, we’re reminded each day that there are others less fortunate who need help, so let’s all pitch in as a community and do what we can.

If you come across any special efforts or volunteer opportunities, please let us know!
