Russian obituaries

[Ruby J. Jones]

You might look at some of the regional American-Russian 
newspapers/magazines, taking into account that both the language and the 
practice might be linguistically influenced by the American environment. (I 
have seen such obituaries in the Houston-based "Nash Texas".)
