I read a book about the 1980 eruption, and one of the parts that really stuck with me was Mr. Truman. He was made into a local hero for being stubborn and refusing to leave during evacuations because it was his home and he'd lived with the volcano for decades.
However, I think it was a reporter that went to interview him and said he appeared to be scared. I guess being thrust into a role as a folk hero made him stay despite starting to think otherwise...
EDIT: Here is the book for anyone interested.
