Oliver ''Chum'' Baker was on vacation visiting Smith Lake with his family for the Memorial Day Holiday weekend when the terrible incident occurred.

The 52-year-old man was taking his Labrador puppy for a walk when he was bitten by a copperhead, which ''was still coiled up outside the back door'' after the attack.

His brother Reb Baker attempted to perform CPR on Oliver who was then taken to a hospital in Jasper.

According to Tuscaloosa news, ''the venom from the snake bite caused anaphylactic shock and cardiac arrest''.

A memorial service will be held for the University of Alabama graduate who worked for the City of Northport.
