Glynis Johns, most known for her role as Mrs. Winifred Banks in the 1964 film "Mary Poppins" has died. She was 100.

Her publicist Mitch Clem told Eyewitness News she died Thursday from natural causes.

Glynis earned an Oscar nomination for "The Sundowners" and won a Tony award for "A Little Night Music."

Very very sad :(

It's hard to believe that Glynis Johns made it to 100 and I was surprised that she was still making appearences in TV and movies. I remember Glynis from Mary Poppins because of the song she sung and when she sings that song I always sing along with her and I didn't know Glynis Johns could sing so perfectly with perfect pitch. I do remember her from Cheers when she guest starred as Diane Chambers mother and was surprised that Glynis was still active in movies and TV and I thought she retired after Mary Poppins. How did Glynis Johns audition for the role of Mrs. Banks in Mary Poppins?
