      Note July 1 2019: Current information on death certificate says he died of a gunshot wound, ruled homicide, which occurred at a "beer joint". Death appears to be instantaneous based on the notation "no doctor in attendance".
      His age at the time of his death was 37 years and six days. The death apparently occurred in Norma. The death certificate lists his usual residence as "Dean, Tennessee".
