Hi Lois, Have you been to http://www.thepas.com ? in the "what's new" section they have on-line classified listed, maybe you could put in an announcement asking someone up there for information. There is also a Funeral Home listed on the site......snail mail, but they may have some records. BTW means "by the way" BTW! Have a good day!
