Oh for heaven's sakes you know she died. We celebrate Washington's birthday, and Lincoln's birthday,
does some have to tell you they died?

Yes, by convention she did not quite make it to her 100th birthday but, since life technically does not start at birth, she did make it to 100 years old (counting in utero time). To your question though, as others have already stated, the Parade article was most likely printed before she passed.

Nope. Parade is printed far in advance. It would be much to expensive to pull the story. Worked just as well as a look at her life and career. And I'm sure it has a living, breathing editor!

They knew people would know she passed. Simply too expensive and too difficult logistically to pull the story and reprint the publication.

If they did would they make so many factual errors?
