In the early 1970s, Gorsline-Runciman reminded families that we were here to serve from three chapels: Gorsline Runciman Funeral Homes - Lansing , Gorsline-Runciman Funeral Homes - Mason , and our East Chapel on East Grand River in East Lansing. Together, these locations provided care and comfort to families across mid-Michigan.

Pictured are Glen Dunn, David Cornwell, and Schuyler Smith, three of the dedicated directors who helped shape our company’s enduring reputation. Today, our East Lansing Chapel continues that mission, welcoming families with the same compassion and dignity promised in this ad so many years ago.

Grief does not stop when the workday begins. If you are grieving, lean on routine, communicate your needs, and allow yourself moments of care. If a coworker is grieving, acknowledge their loss, offer specific support, and continue to check in.

At Gorsline Runciman, we believe compassion and understanding can make the workplace a safe place for healing.

Coping with the loss of a spouse can be one of life’s most difficult journeys. Having the chance to connect with others who understand can bring comfort and hope. At Gorsline-Runciman, we are honored to offer Dignity Memorial LIFT, a program created especially for widows and widowers.

LIFT provides opportunities to gather with others who understand what you are going through, while enjoying activities like luncheons, sporting events, holiday gatherings, day trips, and educational seminars.

There are no fees or dues to join. Members are responsible only for their own meals or personal expenses, and participation is open to anyone, not just those who have been served by Dignity Memorial providers.

At Gorsline-Runciman Funeral Homes, we are honored to host LIFT as a way to create a safe and supportive space to heal, connect, and move forward together.

Contact us today, and ask to speak with Debbie for more information.
