I am not sure what paper it would be in. You might want to see if there is a library in Highland that has a local paper on file or ask what the local paper would be. If she lived in the Detroit area for a long time, her death notice may appear in the News or the Free Press. DEARBORN: Henry Ford Centennial Library (313) 943-2330, 16301 Michigan Avenue, Dearborn, Mi 48126. Has the Detroit News from 1955 and the Detroit Free Press from 1970.
