Formal identification has not yet taken place
well maybe wait until the family have doen so, otherwise you are putting even more stress on them if it isnt him
Sad
It is carefully worded , my Daughter died at my home so I sure knew so did my wife , we still had to go over the hospital with id a few days later and identify her body and sign a form.
Until formal identification has taken place , forms signed etc a person cannot legally named.
The police or whoever do not inform people / family a member is dead.
Rest in peace Paul.I will miss our chats
