Notes |
- James Robert McKenzie, 28, of 122 Mullin Street, was found dead about 3:45 a.m. yesterday at the City Jail. Mr. McKenzie, who was picked up in an intoxicated condition for protective custody about 12:10 p.m. Saturday, was found dead by Police Officer Thomas Mayo about 3:45 a.m. yesterday. Dr. Benedict Skitarelic, deputy county medical examiner, attributed Mr. McKenzie's death to aspiration of stomach contents. He apparently had vomited in the jail and fell to the floor in such a position that he inhaled the vomit. The medical examiner estimated that he had been dead between 10 and 12 hours at the time his body was discovered. Mr. McKenzie was born in Cumberland, and was a son of George F. and Mildred A. (Cunningham) McKenzie. A veteran of the Vietnam War, he was a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church and Cumberland Aerie 245, FO Eagles. Also surviving besides his parents, are his widow, Mary (Coiner) McKenzie; a son, James T. McKenzie, city; two daughters, Christine Ann and Mary Ann McKenzie, both of Whitesville, W. Va.; two brothers, George E., Buena Park, Calif., and Joseph J. McKenzie, Chardon, Ohio; and five sisters, Mrs. Mary Jo Growden, Mrs. Dorothy Thrasher, Mrs. Rita Markley and Mrs. Sue Ann Greenawalt, all of Cumberland, and Mrs. Virginia Crews, Mentor-on-the-Lake, Ohio. The body is at the Scarpelli Funeral Home, where friends will be received today from 7 to 9 p.m. and tomorrow from 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. Mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated Wednesday at 9 a.m. in St. Mary's Catholic Church.
