You could email the Livonia library and ask them to look at the microfilm for The Detroit News. The notices online for the Detroit News are the death notices only-not obituaries. You could ask the library staff to look for both a death notice and an obituary. They are sometimes put in the paper after the services after taken place, so I would ask them to look for several days after the DOD-maybe even up to a week.
