Miep Gies, one of the people who helped hide and feed the Frank family as they hid from the nazis, and the person who preserved Anne's diary until such a time as it could be published, died aged 100.

What a marvelous individual. I read Anne Frank as a young girl and was always inspired by the bravery of Miep. I had no idea she was still alive until now.
