She was about 60 there

This is really neat! I’ve only see a picture of her younger, I think it’s her doing the backward shot with the mirror. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of her as an older woman. Thanks for sharing!

She melted down her silver medals and used the money to help and teach girls and women to use a gun for protection and hunting.

She was an amazing woman.
