I googled that, it's possible.
My hypothesis is he had a tooth pulled less than a month prior, even though he took antibiotics I think it is possible the infection could have spread and gotten into his brain or lungs. A girlfriend of a family member died from that when I was younger, and I remember she didn't really get sick beforehand.
He had some flu like symptoms before this happened, but nothing alarming. We went bowling about a week before and he didn't feel up to rolling, but generally he looked ok, just seemed a little tired. He was an auto mechanic and he never missed a day.
Whatever happened, it wasn't immediately apparent at autopsy, and the state is backed up on panels / tox screens / etc so it will be a long wait for any answers they might have.
