Man Chokes To Death On Meat
Franklin T. Hunt, 36, of 115 San Francisco boulevard, San Anselmo, had a snack just before dinner last night. Shortly afterward, he was seized with an attack of choking and died.

Hunt, a Pacific Gas and Electric Co. workman, is survived by his wife, Marie, and six children, Roger, Michele, Paula, Yvonne, Lawrence and Thomas.
A native of Illinois, Hunt had been a resident of Marin for four years. He was a veteran of World War II.
Funeral services will be held Thursday at 11:30 a.m. at Keaton’s, San Rafael. Interment will be in Golden Gate National Cemetery, San Bruno.
