On March 21, 2015, the body of Rafrele Reppuci, an unclaimed individual, was discovered in Hesperia, California. Reppuci, a hospice patient and resident of Hesperia, passed away at IMS Board and Care, a facility providing specialized support for residents requiring constant care. Despite being under the care of the hospice facility, Reppuci remained unclaimed after his death, prompting the involvement of local authorities to manage his case.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department- Coroner Division, based at 175 South Lena Road in San Bernardino, took charge of the investigation under case number 701502397. The department, responsible for determining the cause and circumstances of deaths within San Bernardino County, took on the task of seeking any next of kin who could claim Reppuci's remains. Despite these efforts, Reppuci remains unclaimed, with NamUs ID UCP77069 being assigned to his case in the national database of unclaimed persons. This identification serves to assist in the search for any relatives or acquaintances who might come forward to provide him with a final resting place.
The coroner's division, which is accessible at 909-387-2978 and through their online presence at http://wp.sbcounty.gov/sheriff/divisions/coroner/, continues to handle Reppuci's case with the hope of resolving his status. As of now, any individual with knowledge of Rafrele Reppuci or potential kin is encouraged to contact the department and assist in bringing closure to this unclaimed case. Through collaborative community efforts, the division aims to honor Reppuci’s life by ensuring he does not remain unclaimed indefinitely.
