CNN) -- Even in the Bible Belt, coroners don't use the word "miracle" lightly.

But Holmes County, Mississippi, Coroner Dexter Howard has no qualms using the word for the resurrection, as it were, of Walter Williams, who was declared dead Wednesday night.

Howard received the call from Williams' hospice nurse, who told Howard that the 87-year-old had passed away. A family member called as well, saying the same, Howard said.

Howard and Byron Porter from Porter & Sons Funeral Home in Lexington, Mississippi, drove to Williams' home to collect the body for funeral preparations. Howard checked Williams' pulse about 9 p.m. and pronounced him dead.

"There was no pulse. He was lifeless," Howard said.

The coroner completed his paperwork, placed Williams in a body bag and transported him to the funeral home, he said. There, something strange happened: The body bag moved.

"We got him into the embalming room and we noticed his legs beginning to move, like kicking," Howard said. "He also began to do a little breathing."

They immediately called an ambulance. Paramedics arrived and hooked Williams up to monitors. Sure enough, he had a heartbeat, so they transported him to the Holmes County Hospital and Clinics.

They're better than me, if I was there, I'd cut his head off and said you're not going to kill me you undead son of a batch!!

I'd imagine it would feel quite messed up to be waking up in a damn body bag.

You're getting out of touch, old timer.

Sorry MBD, I don't really like guns IRL, but in video games? I tend to blast on hookers and run over people that get in front of my car when I'm fleeing the cops.

I love mowing down pedestrians in GTA. But if I hit someone when I don't mean to, I apologize.

My favorite thing is pulling folks from the car and waiting to see if they want to fight. Then I pull out my gun and yell, I feel threatened while I unload an entire clip at them.

I like going into the strip club, asking for a private lapdance, killing the stripper and taking her money and then seeing if I can make it out alive. I usually can't.

Ah, good family fun.

You can do that? I'm so going to try when I get home. Here's a tip, use Trevor since his ability to take damage might help, and get body armor. I can't wait to get off work!
