She was a great character and she added so much without even actually doing anything, like Don and Peggy listening to Roger's autobiography about sleeping with Miss Blankenship. Her death was a perfect send off for her character and what she brought to the show.

I love her and Bert doing the crossword together, and the fact that he knew when and where she was born. It really shows how the two of them must have known each other a long time.
