“ Olive Riley, described as the world’s oldest Internet blogger has died at age 108, after posting a final message about singing a “happy song” in her nursing home”, says a report in today’s edition of “The Hindu”.
“ She was born in the Outback town of Broken Hill on 20th October 1899, she lived through two World Wars and raised three children while doing various jobs.”
“Riley had posted more than 70 entries on her blog from Woy Woy on the East Coast since February 2007, sharing her thoughts on modern life and her experiences living through the 20th century”.
My salaam to her spirit.
