More detail on this person: He died suddenly.
He arrived at work Monday morning, 13 August
1973, set his coffee cup on his desk, reached for
the phone to call his dear friend to compare golf
scores from the weekend, and just keeled over. The
hospital was close (across the street) but there
was nothing anyone could do. He had had a
massive heart attack. At least he didn't suffer.
