    At least the poor man died in a beautiful place, and one he apparently loved.

    Condolences to Family and Friends. As a precaution to many, if there are signs that you may have an issue with your circulatory system get yourself checked out. It may be an isolated incident (i.e. atrial fibrillation) or it could be a sign of a more significant problem that can be treated. If not left untreated you could develop coronary disease with unpleasant consequences (stroke).
