Missing iPhone; Password Recovery going to iPhone

My brother is in Hospice. His iPhone has gone missing. I tried iCloud > Find My Phone > but I don't have the correct password. Reset Password wants to go to his MISSING phone. Can Apple Support help?

I was being stupid... what i thought was a notification going TO the iPhone was only verifying the iPhone number. I was able to get a change password sent to his laptop. Apple Support choice was a call early next week. Unfortunately the phone is offline now (dead or turned off) and Find My iPhone doesn't help. At least I was able to get in to his Contacts in iCloud.
