Looking for Info on Henry Kirby

Surnames: KIRBY RYAN
I am looking for any information on Henry W. Kirby, born in Illinois. He was married to Mary E Ryan, from Kansas. The family moved to Ault sometime in 1904 or '05. Kirby ran a furniture store there until 1919. The 1920 US Census lists Mary as a widow, so there is a rough frame for his death. I would greatly appreciate any leads to an obit. or grave site. Mary Ryan Kirby died before 1930, I suspect in '28 or '29. She was living in Ault, but may have been buried in Greeley. Again, any info would be appreciated! Thanks.
