Page note: The page states, "Dates with asterisks are death dates. Dates without asterisks are obituary dates."
Relevant entry:
Name: Iacofano, Arthur J. Sr.
Age: 62
Obit Month/Day: *Jan. 22
Obit Year: 1985
Interpretation:
Because the month/day value has an asterisk, this index records 22 January 1985 as the death date for Arthur J. Iacofano Sr. The entry is an obituary/death index, not the full obituary or a death certificate.
Reading notes
Things to be careful about
The entry is an index entry only, not a full obituary or death certificate.
The asterisk before Jan. 22 is interpreted using the page's own note that asterisked dates are death dates.

Archive notes
No citation block is included because this source was captured from an online obituary index page rather than a repository download with a printed citation page.
This source corroborates the user's approximate 1985 death memory and agrees with the Ancestry compiled profile's death date.
Prefer an Ohio death certificate, Ohio death index record image, or full obituary if later found.
