Accident Victim's Death Is Checked
John Kramer, 76, of 2826 Euclid avenue, apparently died of a heart attack, the coroner's office said Wednesday, but results of an autopsy are being checked to determine if an auto accident in which he was involved two weeks ago had anything to do with it.
Mr. Kramer was found in his bedroom Tuesday night by his wife, Alice. He had been a private policeman for many years at Crosley Field, River Downs race track and the Cincinnati Symphony.
He also leaves a sister. Mrs. Mamie Flynn, Deer Park, and a brother, Augustus Kramer, Toledo.
The Riedlinger funeral home, 19 Green street, is in charge.
