Westley Hancock, the late owner of Bruce’s Barber Shop on Thonotosassa Road in Plant City, died of natural causes.
Previously, authorities believed that Hancock may have been electrocuted while installing a ceiling fan. Hancock’s autopsy, performed by the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner’s office, showed that he died of hypertensive arteriosclerotic heart disease on June 16. He was 41.
Hancock was a Florida State football fan who never met a stranger, his family says. He is survived by his wife, Emily; daughters, Sydney Stewart and Aubrey Hancock; father, Alan; sisters, Christina Willis and Amy Hancock; and grandparents, Bruce and Patricia Hancock and Alma Louise Nichols.
A funeral service for Hancock was held on Saturday, June 20.
