Tried most of the options you gave....my father worked for the Progress for years and years, there isn't anything. We had checked years ago when I used to sit with him at work. I haven't tried Paffords....I know there wasn't a funeral home used, you know they used to have visitation at home and church but someone probably prepared the body. However, it may have been a family member, because several of that generation were just groomed and buried that I know of. If you are looking for the Pafford website, it is www.paffordfuneralhome.com I check obits there quite a bit, it is really helpful. I wish Reed's had something online. Thanks for all the suggestions!
