RIP-Her Husband was a good President ( I consider him a failure, for not pardoning Nixon among others. None of the less, he deserved a full term in 76 to really prove himself). She was among the greatest First Ladies.

I'm not going to follow all of her advice as she wants me to stay within 1500-1800 calories.  That is just not going to happen.

93? That's a nice long life. But it's always sad when a president or first lady dies.
