Obituary for David J Brookes
« on: Friday 15 September 23 15:11 BST (UK) »
Is there anyone kind enough to find an obituary for me please?

David J Brookes
died 3rd Jan 1996 age 53 in Arizona


I think this is the person I am looking for, but aren't sure. I don't know who his parents were but know he had 3 children Paul, Stephen and Elizabeth.  I'm not trying to find any living people, but I want to just find out where and when he died. I've been given his name, year of death and Arizona!

If anyone can shed any light, or tell me where to find this info, I'd be very, very greatful

The family search entry is just an index.  The obituary was published 3 January 1996 but was not the date of death.  Perhaps available thru family search family history centre ?

Can't see a listing on ancestry?

Have you got a link please ?

I couldn’t find it on ancestry.
I looked up the Centre and it looks like it’s no longer there.
