The closest match I can fins I a yellow billed cuckoo. The bill and white Brest are a match, the photos I have do not show the barred underside of the tail, which would be a dead giveaway. It is rare where you are, if that is what it is. Too bad it did not survive.

According to what I see, that's a Yellow-billed Cuckoo. Breeds all across the midwest and east coast. Winters in South America.
