Thanks for that Jacqie.
it is my tree on Ancestry. After I posted the request I did a search on the California sites available to me and found the death date.

On a morbid note it looks like Marion's parents came back home with her ashes a month after her sudden death.

cant find her widower Joseph P Frawley yet.
