Very sorry for your loss. If you would,like to try and get a diagnosis on what might have killed him, most state vets will do a necropsy for a nominal price. But the body must be kept cold, not frozen, and taken to the state vet lab. What state are you in? Here is a list of most state vets to contact if you are interested in finding out if he had anything contagious:

Thank you, and sorry, my mom ended up burying him before I could find a state vet lab.
