Happy New Year from Finland!

I am a first person who check this case of relative. Have you some solutions?

My granmother's sister was immigrant and she moved to America year 1916. In Finland she was named Mathilda (Matilda) Ikari. I have seen very, very old photos she was named Mrs. Tillie Koljonen - but this is not all, in some photos she was named Tillie Risman. (??)
In Finland her surname was Ikari. She was married with Mr. Koljonen (or married twice). What is name Risman? They didn't have any children.
She was born 16.10. 1890, died in accident 06.10. 1946 in Detroit. (I have text in english: Koljonen Tillie, oct. 6. widow of the late Peter Koljonen).
Church was D.P. Anderson church. Is this church in Detroit/Michigan? How can I find it?

What do you think about, have I any possibilities to know where is her grave?
Where is possibly situated her or her husband's archive, estate inventory deed, in office? How I can find her husband's (or married twice) names?

If you can help me, this could be first solution, because we don't know anything about this and she was our relative.

Greetings from Finland (so cold, now -24)
