It's all over the net & Facebook that Denise LaSalle has died.
I'd expect her local newspaper (the Jackson Sun) to be reporting this fact but so far they have nothing about her passing (though they did a big piece back in October when she had a leg amputated).
I have no reason to doubt this sad information though.
