Wow! Bummer! But looking on the bright side. He looks like he lived well into his senior years. And frankly, that's a pretty good way to go, just 10 minutes and your in heaven ~ sure beats a nursing home  ;) 8)

jen, the photograph is a 'file picture'.  :D

i was very fortunate.  this story is another good reason for carrying an epi pen, his life could have been saved.  very sad.

apis posted a similiar story here:

Beekeeper died after being stung in artery in his neck

2 croatian beekeepers from the the southern town of zadar?  although the names are different, the story is similiar?
