If he does nothing, she will become a "coroner's case". This means the facility will contact the coroner of the county/parish she lives in and they will send someone to pick up her body. It will be cremated then placed in an area with all of the other cremated remains that were not claimed by family. Sadly, this is more common than people want to believe. With the cost of funerals, even cremations (around $1500-$2000), some families have no choice.

Donate her body to science ???



Can't do this. This would have had to be prearranged prior to death and as of a few months ago, most places were still not accepting because of Covid rules. It's not as easy as it sounds to donate your body to science.

Usually there are laws for abandoned, unclaimed or rejected bodies. Same as indigents. Coroner will be directed to have them buried in a proper manner and send the bills to the administrator of estate or court clerk to try to get them paid.
