Hello! I am in search of the following obituary.  This lady, Miriam B. Share, was an avid genealogist and contributed much information to the genealogy world and I wanted to pay tribute to her.  I recently discovered she passed away in 2005; her daughter had posted information about her falling in 2001 and that was the last heard of her. The following death date was from the SSDI; I have been unable to locate an obituary - your assistance would be greatly appreciated.   MIRIAM B.
