       Mrs. Garvin died unexpectedly Thursday at Good Shepherd Hospital in Longview. More than two years ago she had undergone open heart surgery in Houston. At that time an electronic "pacemaker" was placed in her heart. Electrical impulses from batteries implanted under the ribs traveled through wires to the heart and replaced nerve impulses in regulating the heartbeat. Doctors said death resulted from failure of another part of the heart, and was not connected with the action of the electronic device.
