Honestly, out of everything 2020 has thrown at us, this is one that I did not see coming.

Truly the end of an era.

It’s incredible to think how she outlived the co-star of her first feature film, “Much Ado About Nothing,” Ross Alexander, by 83 years!

Good God, I am genuinely stunned. What a sad, sad day. 
 

104 though. What an incredible life and legacy.
