On September 28, 2020, Georgia May Adkins of Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota, passed away due to a stroke at the age of 93.

Though she will be dearly missed by her friends and family, Adkins left behind a message that ensured she will also be remembered by the rest of the country.


After requesting a church service that follows pandemic-related protocols, Adkins requested a specific line be added to her obituary:

"In lieu of flowers, Georgia preferred that you do not vote for Trump."

The obituary quickly circulated through social media, where the President's critics seemed eager to fulfill Adkins's last request.



There were many on Twitter who were glad they could offer Adkins's family some consolation.


Meanwhile, pretty much everyone agreed the 93-year-old was a next-level cool lady.



People's only regret seemed to be wishing they could have known her while she was still alive.



Georgia May Adkins will leave behind many devoted fans who hope to follow her example!

Using her last message, Adkins wanted to speak up for people who have suffered under the Trump administration.


Adkins, who was previously married to two now-deceased husbands, is survived by "three daughters, a son, two stepdaughters, 17 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild."
