Counting film and TV, plus Grant Morrison's All-Star Superman comic series, which takes place outside of normal DC continuity, he's died of a heart attack at least four times now.
Batman has the Joker, Superman has Luthor, and Pa Kent has Cardiac Arrest.
At least his original death was...well...original; he and Martha contracted a rare tropical disease when they discovered a buried pirate chest on vacation (and thus, you can't tell me that superhero comics weren't better in the Silver Age).
Anyways, I feel bad for Pa. Doomed to clutch his chest and keel over ad infinitum.
In rememberance, here's Pa Kent and his uncomfortable fixation with spanking his adopted son...
