I have been able to order St. Louis newspapers through the Inter Library Loan (ILL) program and I live in the Detroit area. The other option would be to order her death certificate to get an actual date. Death certificate should also give the cemetery and funeral home that handled the arrangements. If the funeral home is still open, they most likely have a copy of the obit. http://www.health.state.mo.us/
