Montana Mining Heiress Dies At 104

On my Facebook wall, former colleague Jim Hagengruber pointed out this amazing paragraph in the New York Times re: the death of 104-year-old Montana mining heiress Hugette Clark: “For the quarter-century that followed, Mrs. Clark lived in the apartment in near solitude, amid a profusion of dollhouses and their occupants. She ate austere lunches of crackers and sardines and watched television, most avidly “The Flintstones.” A housekeeper kept the dolls’ dresses impeccably ironed.” Full editorial here.
