That doesn’t really matter because it doesn’t show how anyone was officially alerted about his death. We just know it was live tweeted (which doesn’t exactly seem very feasible to carry out).

If Herb really wanted to do this, he could have probably even put it in his will. Then the only person who’d know the truth would be whoever was specifically designated. The blind man who oversaw it was a stranger to everyone at the funeral, so really he could’ve been anyone.
