My grandmother, God love her heart, would clip obituaries from the newspapers and put them in one of those magnetic photo albums. The type that were sticky and had a clear sheet over them. Too bad we didn't realize when those were popular that 1) everything stuck to them forever and 2) they weren't archival and just faded things. The God love her heart part is that the obituaries she saved - have no dates on them. When so and so died on Wednesday - just have to research closer - which Wednesday. So - to share with y'all - a few obituaries.
