Looking for Information on these Departed Souls

ByDiane Findlay Posted on Uncategorized

Hi, folks! I’m working through a list of possible entries to the Obituaries page on the website, but would love to have some corroboration or additional information on any or all of these souls. If you have memories of any of them or remember elders mentioning them, please let me know! Sometimes the slightest glimmer leads to new sources, or at least provides a nice “Glimpse” to share. Here are the names:

Coranne Willis, Henry Gerald Laursen, Aaron Lewis Roff, Helene Marie Ankerson Verloop or Dirk Verloop, Jennings Connaway, Dr. Jessie Parish, William Grover Rigdon or Maggie Funk, Ruth or Lyle Munson, Brenna Morgan, Katherine (Kay) Andreasen

I’d also love to find obituaries for these dear souls whom I did know, but can’t find records for–Wilma Yourex, Maureen Augustine, Marguerite Ashlock, Grace or Karl Kogh

Quite a few on the first list are from long before my time as a Bahá’í (like passing in the 1930s-60s) so tracing them is tricky–those who might remember them are often gone as well. But any little bit helps!

Thanks!
