Susan,

That address is very close, just a few short blocks, from the corner of Washington Lane and Germantown Ave. Located on that corner was a very prominent, and the first, funeral director in Philadelphia...Kirk & Nice. I would bet that they handled the funeral and their records are available, I'm told, at either HSP or GSP; not sure which. Kirk and Nice is still in business but they have moved to an outlying location. You should be able to find them in the yellow pages.

Regards,
Bob Lightcap
