A FECKENHAM man who made artists' brushes died of a cancer usually associated with exposure to asbestos, an inquest heard on Friday.
County coroner Victor Round opened the inquest into the death of 88-year-old Gerard Cordes at Stourport-upon-Severn.
Mr Cordes, a widower from Church Walk, The Square, died at the Alexandra Hospital on November 7.
Mr Round said: "There is a lot more to investigate so I am going to be adjourning the inquest to a date to be fixed."
