Puzzling death circumstances in a family

The other thing is obiutuaries are generally not professionally written so some people don't know what to put, I struggled with this when writing one for Nanny and my degree is in journalism.

My aunt had 2 sisters and a brother, but her obituary only mentioned one sister (my mother). It's not like my cousins don't know the other aunt and uncle or don't like them, they just weren't thinking clearly and didn't get all the details right. I'm sure this is more likely when the death is sudden.

If it's a sudden death, I don't think the autopsy is done and the cause of death is always known at the point the obituary is written.

In Texas there are various laws on when you are required to decline one and when it is not necessary. We went through this when my Pawpaw died of a heart attack in a hotel. The county wanted a document showing he had been under the supervision of a cardiologist before transferring his body because he did not die at home, in a hospital or accident.
