Obituary/Death record for Frank LeRoy Asher (c1955)
« on: Monday 04 January 16 02:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I'm looking for information regarding the death of Frank LeRoy Asher. I've been able to track down birth records and information for him up through age 18, but then he seems to disappear (and family recollections aren't narrowing anything down).

Frank LeRoy Asher - aka Frank Asher, Leroy Asher, Roy Asher
born 14 March 1923, Cook County Illinois (birth certificate)
resided York, Illinois in 1930 (census)
resided Lombard, Illinois in 1940 (census)
resided/attended school Glen Ellyn, Illinois in 1941 (senior yearbook)
Parents - Herbert James Robert Asher, May Violet (Bore) Asher

Family lore says that he died in/around 1955, potentially from a brain aneurysm. Any assistance would be appreciated!
