On November 1, 2017, a 67-year-old male, identified as Richard A. Beach, passed away due to natural causes at Tacoma General Hospital in Tacoma, Washington. The case came under the jurisdiction of the Pierce County Medical Examiner's Office, which undertook the responsibility of managing the decedent's affairs. Despite a thorough investigation, the office was unable to locate any next of kin, rendering Mr. Beach an unclaimed person.
After conducting an extensive and diligent search to find relatives or any close acquaintances who could claim Mr. Beach's remains, the medical examiner's office came up empty-handed. Given the circumstances surrounding his unclaimed status, arrangements were made to send his body to the Lake Washington Technical Institute. There, he was cremated, with the cremains subsequently returned to the Pierce County Medical Examiner's Office.
Responding to his unclaimed status, the Pierce County Medical Examiner's Office, located at 3619 Pacific Avenue in Tacoma, Washington, handled the case with the case number 17-2115. Despite the efforts made to find anyone connected to Mr. Beach, his case remains a poignant reminder of those who pass away without family or friends to remember them. For further inquiries or information, the agency can be contacted at 253-798-6494.
