Cause of Death: Accident

Mrs. Helen Fitzpatrick, 41, and her 14-months-old son, James II, had waited more than a year to rejoin husband and father, an Army lieutenant colonel on far-off Okinawa. A heroic five-day battle for passports, ship tickets and air reservations followed Fitzpatick's overseas call to Batavia, NY that "everything is all set here." In Portland, they were to have boarded a ship for the Okinawa reunion.
