Obtaining a death record listed on FamilySearch #usa #records

Hi,
I know someone posted that there is a way to obtain the actual records from familysearch while sitting in a parking lot and logging in. I was wondering if there was anyone who could get this record of an aunt that passed away so we could find more info on her (grave, parent info, etc).
Thanks,

This is what I found on FamilySearch

You have the information contained in the record. The Family Search page that this is from states that there is no image available. To get the death certificate that this record refers to you would have to contact the New York City Health Department. Here is the link  https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/services/death-certificates.page

Another option is to search for Dora Kaufman in the NYC (& one NJ) cemetery databases available here:
http://www.museumoffamilyhistory.com/erc-scdb.htm

Part of Washington Cem. in Brooklyn is indexed here:
https://jewishdata.com/
The search is free, but a subscription required to see the tombstone photo.

Good luck in your search,

A third option is to check FindAGrave a free
Online search database.  The fourth option is to search in Jewishgen’s JOWBR database 
which is free but requires registration.

Both have provided me with lots of info.

The images still exist. For some reason they are no longer attached to the index records, but it's not hard to find them.
Since my last attempt at this message was rejected by the moderators, PM me for more info.

Try calling the cemetery - cemeteries will take pictures for a fee

On jewishdata website is an Isaac Kaufman who died in 1900 - is this your Isaac? If so I can send picture to you.  No Dora or Minnie listed on this site

Ok folks, I fell for it. I actually went to the parking lot and tried to log in. 
It appeared that were several hot wifi's in the area. So I tried them all. I tried many versions of the password - lower case, initial cap, all caps -- nothing got me signed in!
So unless you are really bored and have nothing else to do, take the trip. As for me, I would spend my time watching a movie instead!
