Thank you for the Certificate of Naturalization.

Tom's memorial card doesn't give any details about his death other than the undertaker, Martin S. Chalk, 57-04 Roosevelt Avenue, Woodside, N.Y.

From the fact Nora appears on the 1940 Census but not on the 1950 Census would indicate the possibility she died during that decade ? Or is that a wrong assumption to make ?
Michael.
