Well Bill, I went to the obit section first as it was
listed in the menu on the home page on the left side. Then when the obit
page appeared, on the right side I saw a link for "star death notices". I
clicked on that. The next page was a search page and I entered his name
"Reid". It came up with one entry and I clicked on it and the notice
appeared.
I didn't really pay attention to the word "starclaasified"
in the link.
From the Globe & Mail:

Thanks. I looked for that, but it didn't
occur to me to look in the Classified section. As Joe was quite well known, I
expected it to be in the Obituary section.

I
found this here:
I hope if I live to 90
that I will be active and alert until the end.
