And now, the internet will keep her memory alive forever. Helen Van Winkle, affectionately known to followers as Baddiewinkle, has died at the age of 97.
Baddiewinkle found freedom in dressing in eclectic, sometimes outlandish outfits, building a reputation for her unique personal-style. She spoke out against ageism, the impossible standards set by the beauty industry, and advocated for the legalization of marijuana. She became an icon in her 90s, starring in commercials, ad campaigns, and music videos. By doing so, she gave The Silent Generation a voice, and a loud one at that.
"Yesterday, an era ended and a star ascended. My great grandmother Helen Ruth Elam Vanwinkle danced her way to heaven. She was joy, rebellion, and tenderness wrapped in one. The crown is eternal, & her love on many realms will live forever. This isn't a goodbye, this is a See ya later my superstar. ?" she captioned the post.
