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."
