The obituary states CC's date of death as July'26th. CC was reported missing July'25th. Is this correct?
If so, then this means they were able to determine an approxiamate time of death, even though the body wasn't recovered until 8 days later.
Perhaps stomach contents contained undigested food that fit the description of CC's last meal or maybe the vitreous humor ( fluid inside eyeball ) was obtainable for testing.
CC was reported missing the morning of Tuesday July 26. The last sighting was reported at 9PM Monday July 25th.
I think the only date that the funeral home would use comes from the family, not the ME. But it gives us some insight into when the family believes the death occurred IMHO.
