The symtoms of feline distemper are pretty dramatic - vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy and anorexia.
It is also pretty much 100% fatal if not treated, so I would chance to say that your stray cat probably didn't have it. Did the vet tell you what he died of?
I'm also kind of shocked that this "rescue lady" never bothered taking this kitten to the vet during the time she had it. I've personally never seen a little kitten who was "laid back" or lethargic.
