Bettie Page, the brunet pinup queen with a shoulder-length pageboy hairdo and kitschy bangs whose saucy photos helped usher in the sexual revolution of the 1960s, has died. She was 85.
Page, whose later life was marked by depression, violent mood swings and several years in a state mental institution, died Thursday night at Kindred Hospital in Los Angeles, where she had been on life support since suffering a heart attack Dec. 2, according to her agent, Mark Roesler.

Rest in Peace Bettie.
The so-called ‘hotties’ of today’s generation can’t hold a candle that sweet lady.
And she was a lady.
Is it me, or is all the news lately just BAD?

"'Round about 10 we all got to talking
'Bout Graceland, Bedrock and such
The conversation finally turned to women
But they said they didn't get around too much
Elvis said, "Find 'em young"
And Fred said "Old Fashioned girls are fun"
Yabba Dabba Doo, the King is gone
And so are you"
- from George Jones 'Yabba Dabba Do', 1989

And she was a lady. Yes, and she retired from the business with dignity, a lived a humble life.
