Mudry's death came nearly a week after he and his family visited Bally's Atlantic City so the 71-year-old retired Teamster could drink a cold beer and play a few hands of blackjack.
Mudry made the trip with help from his hospice caretakers and health care providers. He ended up winning a few hundred dollars.
