Barbara Bush, wife of former president George H. W. Bush and mother to former president George W. Bush, passed away on Tuesday.
From NBC New York News:
You can read more here.On Sunday, family spokesman Jim McGrath said the former first lady had decided to decline further medical treatment for health problems and focus instead on "comfort care" at home in Houston. She had been in the hospital recently for congestive heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In 2009, she had heart valve replacement surgery and had a long history of treatment for Graves' disease, a thyroid condition.
"My dear mother has passed on at age 92. Laura, Barbara, Jenna, and I are sad, but our souls are settled because we know hers was," George W. Bush said in a statement Tuesday. "Barbara Bush was a fabulous First Lady and a woman unlike any other who brought levity, love, and literacy to millions. To us, she was so much more. Mom kept us on our toes and kept us laughing until the end. I'm a lucky man that Barbara Bush was my mother. Our family will miss her dearly, and we thank you all for your prayers and good wishes.

Margot Kidder
Dead at 69yo
Actress Best know as Lois Lane in the 1978 Superman series of movies.
Her life was something of a cautionary tale. Very public meltdowns, from her battle with bipolar mental disorder, made headlines.
She went on to become an advocate for treatment of the mentally ill.
A reminder to all, no matter how successful no one is immune.
