“Only copy of full death certificate I have seen-the others have been cut off at the bottom
Bare bones only. No time or cause of death”
I don’t know if this really is his death certificate, but here is general information on Florida d.c.’s.
You still haven’t seen a “full” d.c. This is the “public” version of a d.c., with no cause of death, manner of death, or injury information listed. Only next of kin and court orders and certain others can get a Florida full death certificate, the rest is confidential by Florida law. “In Florida, anyone may order a Florida Death Certificate “Without cause of death”.” http://www.floridahealth.gov/certificates/certificates/death/
And time of death IS listed on this d.c.—it’s a code entry, 9999, for “unknown.”
Race is chosen by next of kin or whoever legally gives the funeral director the dead person’s data.
Thanks for the clarifications. :)
