I read about the falling incident also but i thought it would be interesting to see his death certificate to see if the cause of death written on it might corroborate the verbal story about what caused his death."Fracture of the skull from a fall" written on the death certificate could be the cause of death resulting exactly from the verbal recollection we have read.
But fellow posters there is something very odd about the description of death as compared to other death certificates i have seen.
I noticed it is signed by an autopsy surgeon, at least that is what it appears to read under the signature on the death certificate.That is not what is unusual.
Professional people sign these death certificates and write in the cause of death.
But what is very unusual is that the cause of death is written in layman terms instead of complicated medical language i can't understand.I have seen a lot of musicians death certificates and they always seem to have complicated medical terms listed as cause of death EXCEPT Don Murrays.
As an example i will present here a death certificate of another musician who recorded with Bix- Dick Voynow- read the cause of death on his cert:
Medical term listed, uremia, instead of layman term, bladder infection.And due to chronic "whatever it is"
( and of course we all know it again-"this document from the personal collection of Tim Fitak)
