I don't know of any distinguishing word for the case described.
"Befuddler" will probably be used by some genealogist far in the future. And dying on one's birthday will save the estate some money at the stone carver, so it may deserve its own word.
Maybe we can coin "natamortuant" or "annicadaver" (the latter of which, though probably in use already as the name of some emo garage band, does roll off the tongue in a pleasing manner.)
"Poor bastard," while probably spoken under these circumstances more often than not, has too many other applications to be useful here.
