Or did she die in 2014? The following is from the above D Mail piece: "Her older sister Poppy also shared her sadness on social media, while posting another picture of the matriarch in her youth.

She wrote: 'The stars seem so much brighter now... GAGA, I will never stop missing you 1912-2014.' "

Possibly ... although everybody mistypes years in this time of the year.
