This “Record of Death” for Marie-Louise Rouff was employed by Mr. Coogan to close her bank accounts, liquidate her possessions, and otherwise prepare for probate. The report from the Massachusetts State Police indicates, however, that as of July 17, 2026, her death had not been reported to the state of Massachusetts, or to the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital, no permit for her burial had been issued, no autopy had been conducted, and a funeral home was asked (by someone) to process worksheet describing her death supposedly filled out by a doctor at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital, by hand, even though that funeral home had played no role in the disposal of the body.
