My obituary
Lisa Principi, an Emmy Award and Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, died last night in the comfort of her home at the ripe age of 123.
Before her death, she was the oldest living woman in the world at the time.
After graduating from San Jose State University with a bachelor's degree in journalism, she went on to work in broadcast and print media all around California.
She became an ABC News correspondent and won multiple awards for her reporting on World War III.
She wasn't afraid to put herself in danger to get the best shot.
She continued her work until her mid 70s, when she decided a less stressful life would be better for her health.
In her free time, she enjoyed pilates, hiking and spending time with family and friends.
She married Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world, and lived a comfortable life all around the globe.
Both Principi and Bezos are well known for the philanthropic work around the world, specifically pertaining to children.
After Bezos passed, she settled down in Santa Barbara, California right by the coast.
She is survived by her daughter, Elizabeth, two grandchildren and dog Sabrina.
"She always taught me to never give up," Elizabeth said. "She worked hard and it payed off."
A celebration of life is scheduled for April 20.
