    Default Cause of death

    Can anyone medical or good at reading old writing please confirm that the cause of death below reads (I think) Aneurrism (i.e. aneurysm) of Thoracic Aorta (then) Exhaustion. I do know he died of heart problems. Thanks.

    A thoracic aortic aneurysm is the "ballooning" of the upper aspect of the aorta, below the rib cage. Untreated or unrecognized they can be fatal due to dissection or "popping" of the aneurysm leading to nearly instant death.
