I asked that too, apparently she predicted she would die at 88, she was a few years off.
I hate people that prey upon someone's neediness and use it for their own ends. Con artists.
The problem is people using her were often at the lowest point in their lives. People in that type of blackness do not display the best judgement.In her case a lot of people got what they deserved. She was proven wrong a number of times publicly and people still flocked to her. Some people will pay to hear what they want to hear and not care if its true or not.
Still, I despise people in that line of "work."

Even when people know better, I can empathize with their feelings of desperation. But to take advantage of that, there's no angle that doesn't come off wrong in my book.

I don't know what her lifestyle was like but she was rough looking for 77.
Well she was better looking last week compared to today. Just my opinion.
My mother and grandmother were fans of this woman. I never understood it. At least not after I saw her being proven wrong. Even when I was a child that was enough to destroy her credibility in my eyes. I dont know if they still followed her or not at this point. My mother called a fortune teller when I was a kid to find out if my father was cheating. He was, the fortune teller said he wasnt. Then this year she wanted to go see a medium to speak to a dead relative. I dont know how many times she has to be let down or how much money she has to throw away before realizes its all a con.
I said, 'but you did reveal things, you're just not aware of it'. Nope, she wouldn't buy what I was trying to tell her. And it was so odd because this relative is actually a very rational person.
I went to see one with my sister who is also a believer. I had never seen one before but Ive read enough about their practices that I figured I could fake my way through it. I did. I made up a bunch of BS which the medium accepted as fact and went along with it. It was fun at the end to just say I made it all up, just like her. I wish my mother had been there, she had paid for the appointment. A birthday gift to my sister. In a way I felt bad for my sister. She went there thinking there was a chance she could talk to a dead relative or get a message from her and went away disappointed. She admitted to me that the one we saw was clearly a fraud but wasnt willing to give up on all of them. I sent her some links to sites about their practices so hopefully she'll know what to look for if she goes to see another.
I did some checking. the internet refers to her as the late Vera McNicol, so I guess she croaked.There was a psychic in my area when I was growing up. Her name was Vera McNicol and was friends with a guy I went out with. I like some of the things that she said about life in general and how she treated people that flocked to her for help. That is usually a good glimpse into someone's character...how comfortable we feel with the individual's philosophy.
She found a wallet that had been lost on their farm just from a card shuffle. Told them which field to look in, and the time of day to search for it and that it would be by a rock with the sun shining on it. And it was there. I remember that clearly. I also remember her husband being a big man who sat and played checkers for hours with people who were waiting to talk to Vera. He was unbeatable and if you were good at checkers he tried to convince you to stay and play with him not go talk to her.
The police in our area used her although it was not made public because it was not a mainstream thing to do.
She has been dead for many, years.I did some checking. the internet refers to her as the late Vera McNicol, so I guess she croaked.
