Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I'm in Texas, BUT have found him listed in an obituary index at this URL: www!.eastonpl!.org/ObitPDF/1992!.pdf The PDF displays this information: Vinnick Anthony 11/11/1992 C-11 (meaning that his obituary was on page C-11 of the 11/11/1992 newspaper) That website is for the Easton Area Public Library (515 Church Street, Easton, PA 18042 - 3587 phone 610-258-2917) Perhaps you are in that area, or a phone call to the library could get further help!.
