“Collection of
Obituaries”
by Patty (Friend) Thompson.
Over one hundred years ago, David
Harrison Friend, grandson of John Friend, Sr., advised the future generations to
document the history of our families and ancestors so that the necessary
information needed to trace their family’s roots would be preserved. It seems
that sooner or later there comes a time in most everyone’s life when they wish
to know more about their ancestors; where they lived, what was their occupation,
etc.
This collection of
obituaries is my effort to leave behind the history of the persons herein named.
I realize that this is a small offering and there are still thousands of
obituaries still to be recorded. This book is the first step in providing
people, far and near, access to obituaries found in the Friend Family
Association of America’s library and in the personal library of the author.
The Collection of
Obituaries, by Patty (Friend) Thompson contains over 650 obituaries and has
been indexed with the name of the deceased; spouse; and parents when named.
The initial cost of
printing the book has been donated to the FFAA. Proceeds
from the initial copies and reprints produced by the FFAA will go to the FFAA.
(a non-profit organization). All book sales are tax
deductible. Each book in the initial offering will be signed by the author.
Black and white
spiral bound copies can be purchased for $35.00 (plus $5 S&H) or a CD at $20
(plus $5 S&H). The CD contains copy of the book in a PDF format (requiring
Acrobat 7.0). Earlier versions of Acrobat can open the text, but not all the
images. Credit card purchases can be made by using Pay Pal at the FFAA web-site.
10% of each Collection of Obituaries book sale will be donated to
the American Cancer Society.
Credit card purchases can be made
by using Pay Pal at the FFAA web-site.
Orders paid by check (made payable to the FFAA) should be
sent to:
