I don't think it's true. I can't find any resources that says she died. People can just edit anything on Wikipedia.

Yeah, I just heard about that. Truly amazing-115 years old. Lived through THREE CENTURIES (19th, 20th, and 21st) Now i dont know about you, but this lady could have conerversations with me for hours if i ever had the chance to meet her, I love history. She grew up through so many events, Titantic, Great Depression, World Wars 1 and 2, and so so much more. Most have been amazing if we grew up in her shoes.

Absolutely, and she was with it, right up to the end, she would read the newspapers every day, read her mail everyday, which was loads of letters, she was still signing autographs, and could still walk a few steps...... all this at 115.
Frankly she never stopped, as every day they was so much for her to do....
What an amazing life.....we can only begin to think of her chats, with others..
BYE-BYE EDNA.....GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN.
