:eek:

There is so much this world losses when its elderly die. It's inevitable, yes. But so terribly sad...

It would have been an honor to have met her.

that's sad. she lived a good long life though. Since people are living longer, people will age and replace the elderly that we lose, maybe even outliving some of the people in their 100s that recently have died.

That's sad :(

But she had all these people in her life, and had a good life.
She was lucky to live that long.....I doubt I'll live a day after age 70!

:( and :) at the same time. She lived long. :)

My great grampa was in the paper for being...100 something once...but that was in the 70's I think :grr:

It's a shame she died so young. God bless her! R.I.P.

IM 102:D :wave:

this is sad...I hate when these awesome people pass away

CamdenGirl, don't be so down on yourself...ya only got 1 life so live it up and be happy, enjoy who you have and strive for the best...you'll see this once u mature a lil bit.

Why is it always the young ones? :(

At least she lived a long, hopefully fullfilling life!

She's seen so much! It said she was born in 1890!!! :eek:

I would've loved to have met her.

I'm glad she lived a good long life :) That's a really long time to live! I know a lady who is 105 and still getting around pretty well.
