I believe it was my brother that first told me this story, and I recall looking it up back in the olden days when you had to look stuff up using books. One source listed he dying from a heart attack, another was not specific in how she died, and a third did not mention her ever dying.
So depending on which you believe, she might still be out there!
B!

2025-03-06 18:09:08 +0000 UTCThere is a nod to this in Civ 5. Research Horseback Riding as Catherine (Russia) before anyone else and get the achievement 'My Little Pony'.
