Harry Randall Truman (not to be confused Harry S. Truman) was an elderly man who lived in a lodge near the foot of Mount St. Helens. He became something of a celebrity when he refused to leave despite warnings from scientists. Truman died along with 56 other people when Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980.
