Hi JoLyn, check out the cemeteries at www.rootsweb.com/~wafrank/cemeteries.htm and www.interment.net. If you don't find Roy there contact the local genealogy society at www.tricitygenealogysociety.org.

For a copy of Roy's obituary send an email to askalibrarian@secstate.wa.gov with his name, death date and place. They will search the newspaper microfilm for free for one hour and email the results to you.

Sorry but I don't know anything about CA. Good Luck
