Maria Von Trapp - one of the seven Von Trapp Children - depicted in the movie "The Sound Of Music" (she was portrayed as the blond daughter "Louisa" in the movie) died at the age of 99.
- The announcement came when a doctor ran out the front door of the hospital dressed in a Nazi uniform and yelled, "She's Gone!!!"
