The NY Times had a huge obit for her. That Travis she married in Michigan made a fortune after he invented a door jamb for automobiles. She continued to perform in the AIDS benefit every Easter and appeared in the show a few weeks ago. She did a few kicks, but said she could no longer do cartwheels. According to the NYT story, she died of an aneurysm.
