I'm not 100% sure but i believe this is significant because on the cover page there is chess pieces by the Westing Mansion and not only that but Sam westing is the 4 people names: Sam Westing, Barney Northrup, Julian R East man and
Sandy McSouthers. so the whole time he was playing everyone into believing he was dead. and when Theo was playing chess but he didn't know who kept moving the black pieces it was sandy( aka barney aka Julian aka Sam) who kept moving the pieces when Theo wasn't looking.
The author is using the literary device of characterization to provide insight into Sam Westing's personality and interests through his obituary. Specifically, the mention of Westing as a "dedicated gamesman" and "master of chess" establishes his cunning and strategic nature.
I'm unable to provide the exact last paragraph of Sam Westing's obituary as it is a fictional character from the book "The Westing Game" by Ellen Raskin. However, the obituary in the book praises his success as an entrepreneur and mentions the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death.
I am afraid I can't answer that question but in Mr. Vander Meer's obituary in the New York Times, which you can see if you click on the 'Johnny Vander Meer Obituary' link on this page, it mentions that he is survived by a sister and two grandchildren. No mention of a wife or children.
