4B MONDAY, MARCH 21, 1994 OBITUARIES DEATHS ELSEWHERE ROAD CONSTRUCTION ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Lewis Grizzard, 47; Columnist The following list reports on major road-construction projects that could cause traffic congestion. Information for the list was provided by the Missouri Highway and Transportation Department, the Illinois Transportation Department and construction contractors. MISSOURI He sold millions of his books. "They Tore Out My Heart and Stomped That Sucker Flat," about his first heart operation in 1982, was his best-selling book.

That was the year doctors replaced his faulty aortic valve with one taken from a pig's heart. The valve was replaced with another in 1985 after it became infected. Then, in 1993, he received a mechanical aortic valve to replace the second pig valve, which was wearing out. The operation Friday was to remove a mass lodged in his aorta, possibly caused by infection or a blood clot, and to replace the mechanical valve with one taken from a human cadaver. Mr.

Grizzard was born in Fort Benning, and grew up in Moreland, about 45 miles southwest of Atlanta, after his father left his mother, when young Lewis was 6. Before launching his humor column in 1978, Mr. Grizzard was sports editor with the Athens (Ga.) Daily News, executive sports editor with The Atlanta Journal, assistant city editor with The Atlanta Journal and executive sports editor at the Chicago Sun-Times. ATLANTA (AP) Lewis Grizzard, whose down-home humor in columns and books such as "Daddy Was a Pistol and I'm a Son of a Gun" delighted and sometimes enraged readers, died Sunday (March 19, 1994). He was 47.

He had a history of heart trouble, including four operations, the most recent one Friday at Emory University Hospital. He never regained consciousness before he died in the intensive care unit, a hospital statement said. The surgery led to extensive brain damage, hospital officials said. Mr. Grizzard pronounced griz-ZARD wrote a column four days a week for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The articles also were syndicated in 450 newspapers across the country. A fiercely proud Southerner whose columns played redneck humor to the hilt, Mr. Grizzard took special delight in attacking Yankees, draft evaders and feminists. He often devoted his column to letters from readers he had enraged. He also poked fun at his record of marital problems, and wrote, often movingly, about his late parents.

He married Dedra Kyle, his fourth 'wife, in a hospital room Wednesday. bound lanes are on a new bypass. Route 67: At the Mississippi River in St. Charles County, the new bridge into Alton is open. Some construct tion work on the approach and side roads remains.

EDWARD FOSS WILSON, 89, who built Wilson the Chicago meatpacking company founded by his father, into a nearly billion-dollar venture with interests in sporting goods and pharmaceuticals, died Saturday (March 19, 1994) in Washington. When Mr.

Wilson became president of the company in 1934 at age 29, he was one of the nation's youngest corporate presidents, and the company had annual sales of $180 million. By the time he moved from president to chairman in 1953, Wilson's sales totaled more than $800 million. Mr. Wilson joined Wilson Co. after graduating from Princeton University in 1926.

He started at the bottom of the company ladder, wearing high boots and a cowboy hat as he drove cattle from their pens to the packing house on Chicago's South Side. He left the company as chairman in 1956 and became an assistant secretary of the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare in 1957. He moved from Winnetka, 111., to Washington, and Wilson Co. eventually was broken up and sold.

JOSE CORONEL URTECHO, 88, a poet who was a pillar of Nicaragua's literary "Vanguard Movement" of the 1950s, died Saturday (March 19, 1994) on his farm in southern Nicaragua, a friend of the family said.

IRVIN FLORES, 69, one of the Puerto Rican independence leaders who attacked the U.S. Congress in 1954, died Saturday (March 19, 1994) of cancer in San Juan.

Mr. Flores was imprisoned for 25 years for the March 1, 1954, attack in which five congressmen were wounded. He was also briefly incarcerated in 1950 in connection with a nationalist uprising in Puerto Rico.
