Dear Findagrave Friends and Enthusiasts

My many thanks to all of you who have contributed to Findagrave Memorials. You are such a blessing to those searching for loved ones.

My interest began when I worked in a local funeral home here in Hailey, Idaho and saw all of the many records from present and previous Funeral Directors in books, boxes, binders and computer databases. I thought how nice it would be if they were all in one database. So that's what I did. We have about 11,000 entries for all of Blaine County, listing everyone who died here plus everyone who was buried here. Right now I am searching for those who died here and were buried some place else. That may be a never ending search.

Our first real funeral home in Blaine County was the Harris Furniture Company that started in 1896 building coffins, but there are headstones that date back to 1879.

My real job is tuning pianos, also moving and repair.

I will gladly turn over any memorials to any FG member who would like to maintain them and add to them.

Thanks

Michael White
