BAY MINETTE, Ala. (AP) - An Alabama man whose wife disappeared
off a cruise ship two weeks ago has hired an attorney to help him
get a death certificate for the woman.
Sven Vilborg of Bay Minette says the first step is asking a
court for the document. Having a death certificate would let
relatives of Michelle Vilborg collect on a $5,000 accidental life
insurance policy her husband said she had recently taken out.
Authorities believe Michelle Vilborg went overboard from the
Carnival Holiday during a cruise out of Mobile on June 15th. The
Coast Guard never recovered her body from the Gulf of Mexico.
Sven Vilborg says some relatives want to have a memorial service
now. He said he doesn't want to do so until the investigation is
complete.
