Fore's landlady, Vera Hodges, said she went to check on the student when she didn't see him all day. HE didn't move his car to go to classes all day, so I was afraid he might be sick. I called him first, and when he didn't answer the phone I used the master key to look in on him," Hodges said. The landlady found Fore lying Dn the floor of his living room in front of the television, which was still on. Hodges said she just backed out of the room and got two men in another apartment to call the police. "He was a real nice boy," Hodges said. "He was so friendly and easy to talk to. His death is such a sad thing." Standard procedure in cases involving a young person's death calls for an autopsy, Chambers said. "When something happens to somebody that young, we like to know why," he said. Fore is survived by his parents, a brother and a sister. mits] leydi In addition, Riley said he had "al plan to assure continuity of educat the transfer of the doctorate i programs from USC to S.C.
