Judge Mencer,

Matthew J. Teitt suffered a myocardial infarction in the course of his employment with Westinghouse Electric Corporation (Westinghouse) and died as a result thereof. His widow, Beulah R. Teitt (claimant) *560filed a fatal claim petition and, following a hearing, a workmen’s compensation referee made an award of benefits to the claimant. Westinghouse appealed this award to the Workmen’s Compensation Appeal Board (Board) which affirmed the referee’s decision and dismissed Westinghouse’s appeal. Westinghouse seeks our review of the Board’s order. We affirm.
