Vandalism - I've run out of time
I have to sign off this computer shortly but I've found some vandalism in the Utah article that claims "The Great Salt Lake, the major remnant of Lake Bonneville, is so salty from the tears of local residents upon hearing that there would be no Fry's Electronics retail store built in the valley." I've gone as far back in the history as 23 June but can't find where this, and who knows what else, was put into the article. Could someone track this down?

Death certificate
HI, this is L-E-O-S
My questions is I'm 7 months pregnant now , I finally built the courage to order my child's father death certificate because I have absolutely no recollection of how he passed, (he passed in March)not getting full story from family. Not only do I need to know how for myself and my child for when she gets older,but I would like to have it for my records.

I'ved checked with multiple death record services on line but he isn't listed why is that and how do I go about finding him?

Thankyou your advice would be greatly appreciated!
