A Virginia woman’s obituary sure sounds like she wasn’t dying to vote for either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.

An obituary in The Richmond Times-Dispatch said that 68-year old Mary Anne Noland was neither going to vote for Clinton or Trump.

“Faced with the prospect of voting for either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton,” the obituary said. “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.”

But apparently the line about the presidential candidates was to be taken as a joke, by Noland’s children as noted by UPROXX. Mary-Ann’s husband Jim told a local television affiliate “that the line wasn’t meant as a parting shot at either presidential candidate.” Adding, “Rather it was a joke and way for Mary Anne’s children to carry on her sense of humor.”

Noland died on Sunday and is survived by her husband, sister, two brothers, three sons, and 10 grandchildren.
