When Pat Conway died on April 24, 1981 at the age of 50, he had not taken in acting roles in several years; concentrating instead on business interests. His obituary was very brief, simply stating that he had passed away and did not offer any detail. And so the cause of death was apparently never published.

There have been western fans on the internet speculating that he might have died from drinking. But these rumors appear to be based on nothing more than a book from a few years back that said that someone who worked with him mentioned that he drank heavily on the set in the 1950's. This information was repeated on a western fan site almost word for word verbatim and seems to be the source of the rumors. However the reports of drinking even if true, occurred when he was young and single in his twenties and does not necessarily mean that it had anything to do with his death more than 20 years later.
