An obituary for a Virginia grandmother and former nurse claimed her death stemmed from the upcoming election.

“Faced with the prospect of voting for either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, Mary Anne Noland of Richmond chose, instead, to pass into the eternal love of God on Sunday, May 15, 2016, at the age of 68,” the obituary, published Tuesday in the Richmond Times-Dispatch, said.

Noland was mother to three sons and grandmother to 10 grandchildren, the obituary said.
