IIRC, William Henry Harrison was the 1st President to die in office.

His untimely death kicked off what eventually became known as the "Curse of Tippecanoe" so named because every chief executive elected in a year ending in zero wound up expiring before leaving the Oval Office.

The "curse" was finally broken when Ronald Reagan survived an assassination attempt by John Hinckley early in his 1st term.
