There can be a vast range of reasons why a funeral home could not release a body:
Is the family claiming the body the 'legal' next of kin and is able to provide supporting documentation which would satisfy a court of law?
Has the funeral home provided a number of services, for which they have yet to be paid?
Under the local, state, and national laws, is the family wishing to have the body released to them planning to have a natural burial? If so, environmental, and local statuary laws and regulations may require the funeral home to be presented with documentation before such a release can be made.
The greatest challenge many funeral directors face today is the issue of fractured family issues, where the funeral home is clearly left in the middle as a victim of family disputes. This most often happens when there has been a divorce or separation and the new spouse or partner is following the wishes of their partner/spouse, but the parents of the deceased, or the children of the deceased are attempting to claim the body so as to take control over the plans of the new spouse. In these instances local, civil, and national laws prevail in these matters and a clear line of responsibility is already determined.
Such a question suggests that the funeral home has already explained openly and honestly why they are unable to release a body to a certain individual. However, the individual is not pleased with their response.
Other than a mandate issued by police or legal authorities, or certain liens placed upon the body for one reason or another, it's difficult to imagine any other reason.
Accordingly, the most prudent and logical step to take would be to contact the funeral director and enquire as to why they are unable to release the body. Provided the person making the enquiry has a legal right to receive and discuss such personal information on behalf of the deceased and survivors, the funeral director will certainly address the question.

The nurse will call the physician and report signs of death. The nurse will pronounce the death and write the note. Then, he or she will fill out an order to release the body with permission from the legally responsible party and directions to which funeral home the body will go to. The release for will be started and the funeral home will be called. When the mortuary person arrives to take the body he will show identification and sign for the body. The body and any personal items will be sent with the body to that facility. A nursing note will be made chronicling the event. If the family is present at time of death deposition of the deceased family member may have already been arranged. In cases of death by crime or accident where there is a legal matter involved an autopsy may be ordered by the coroner and the body will not be released until this is done which can take weeks. The release routine, but done by the morgue, is virtually the same.
They are called, Undertaker, Funeral Director, or Mortician. It can also be that a Coroner would transport the body to the funeral home.
Undoubtedly, it was one of the Whigham family. They own the funeral home in Newark NJ that handled the funeral arrangements.
By the time the body gets to the funeral home too much time will have passed for the organs to be of any value. Even if they were, it would not be worth the risk of adverse publicity for the funeral director to consider harvesting them.
