Photos with obituaries
Photographs may be printed with paid obituaries. The photograph must be delivered to The Advocate by 3:00 p.m. the day before the obituary is to be published. Please print on the back of the photograph exactly as the name will appear in the obituary. The photograph may be left at the front desk of The Advocate at 7290 Bluebonnet Boulevard. After publication, the photograph may be picked up at the front desk or returned by mail. To be returned, please enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope and also put the return address on the back of the photograph. The Advocate is not responsible for the photograph. The quality of the photograph will determine the quality of its reproduction in the newspaper.
Questions may be directed to the obituary desk, 225.383.1111.
