Mr. Sheridan and his wife Joyce were found unresponsive in the master suite of their home in Skillman, N.J., in 2014. The cause of death was initially ruled a murder suicide. Last month, the state medical examiner changed Mr. Sheridan’s cause of death from suicide to undetermined, leaving open the possibility the deaths were the result of an outside attack.

“John Sheridan left a lasting legacy at Cooper University Health Care and in Camden, a city he worked tirelessly to improve,” Cooper University Health Care board of trustees Chairman George E. Norcross III said in a news release, according to the report. “It’s only fitting that they will always be remembered at Cooper University Health Care in this way.”

The John and Joyce Sheridan Health Center at Three Cooper Plaza features approximately 160,000 square feet of space, according to the report. It is located on Cooper’s health sciences campus.
