WILLIAM HENRY "Bud" RATLIFF
Bud Ratliff Is Heart Victim
Local Man Drops Dead While Going Home
Bud Ratliff, age 76, suffered a heart attack and
died instantly last Friday, November 27.
Mr. Ratliff, who resides on Horse Mill Branch,
had been in town most of the day and had started home.
While about half way up the cemetery road which leads
across the hill to his home he was seized with an attack
and fell in the road. A small boy nearby discovered
Mr. Ratliff’s plight and called Dr. D. H. Daniel from the
City View Hospital. The aged man was breathing his last
breath when Dr. Daniel arrived at the scene. Mr. Ratliff
had been suffering from heart trouble for several months.
Funeral services were held at the home on Horse Mill
Branch and burial in the Turner Cemetery, two miles
west of Paintsville. Mr. Ratliff is survived by his
widow and several grown boys and girls.
