At about eight o’clock on the morning of Wednesday, September 5th, 2012 I had forwarded an email from Dr. Cusack to Attorney Steven Phillips of Pincus & Currier, LLP and added this note:

Steve,

Do you have any idea what I should do here?

I am just completely at a loss at this point.

He replied on the morning of September 7th by saying:

Other than hounding the doctor, that’s about all I can think of.

I hope to speak to Dr. Wolf today. I will call you when I do.

At 7:07 AM I responded to Steve with:

Dr. Cusack was able to finally get Dr. Peele to sign the death certificate yesterday.

He said the cremation was to be performed yesterday and he would contact me today to confirm.
