Re: Dame Vera Lynn has died at the age of 103
She was an icon for sure and I remember her singing. It's amazing she lived for so long and her voice didn't change much if at all, even when she was older. She sure looked terrific at 103! That's a nice article.
"At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more, When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death, And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.” (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis)

Good Greif! I thought she died back before I was born. May God rest her soul.
I wonder how many others are still living out there I don't know about.
