Sorry for your loss. So far, we've had 9 heat-related deaths in Oklahoma. I recently consulted with the daughter of a gentleman who apparently was too cheap (he could have afforded it) to run his A/C and died of an apparent heat-related heart condition. His dog and cat died as well. The putrified remains weren't found 'til several days later.

This is one of the few cases where I'm very happy to not have been retained!
