108 year old blogger dies

An Australian woman named Olive Riley, 108 years old, being described as the world’s oldest blogger has died two days ago (July 12th - thanks eric for the correction). She was maintaining two blogs: allboutolive.com.au and worldsoldestblogger.blogspot.com. She wrote 74 entries in her blog which she started in 2007, blogging about growing up down under, raising 3 kids and about her job. She was placed in a nursing home last month but she continued blogging about coughing and feeling weak. Her last post was about “singing a happy song.” You are a blogger in heaven now, Olive.
