WOW...Thank you.I always appreciate it when unknown bits of info can be tied up.
I have been assisting a family member...his 2nd great grandmother was Catherine Effie 1886-1980 and she was the sister a bit younger than Murdock 1884-1983.
My connection is to this fellow is  through his grandmothers, mother in law...whew... I think I have it right.
  Thanks for the links and Cheers to you

If anyone is able to get a copy of Sarah A. Grexton's obit
 
It was published in 3 papers in Denver Colorado:
Grexton, Sarah Mrs.13 Mar 1923 P12 RMN
Grexton, Sarah Mrs. 13 Mar 1923 P21 DP
Grexton, Sarah Mrs. 14 Mar 1923 P18 RMN


Sarah died Sunday 11 March 1923. There doesn't appear an obit for Sarah, just funeral notice  & permit notice.

In The Denver Post for 12 March 1923 pg. 16, there is a funeral notice.

In The Denver Post for 13 March 1923 pg. 21, there is a burial permit notice.

I checked the papers from 11 Mar. - 15 Mar. 1923 and found no other mention of her on the death/obituary page.

It seems the find a grave contributor gave the fullest account of obituary in the Cranbrook Herald of March 23, 1923, page 1 as the account with most information. (reply 1)

Death certificate for Jessie Hattie Harrison (sister of Murdoch) - Royal Oak Burial Park.
as you said previously Archibald McLeod was the informant.  Helps clear up the query for you.
