Legendary fashion designer Gloria Vanderbilt has passed away at 95. Her son, Anderson Cooper of CNN,  said she was recently diagnosed with stomach cancer. In a statement he said:

“Gloria Vanderbilt was an extraordinary woman, who loved life, and lived it on her own terms.. She was a painter, a writer and designer but also a remarkable mother, wife, and friend. She was 95 years old, but ask anyone close to her, and they’d tell you: She was the youngest person they knew — the coolest and most modern.”

Cooper voiced over an emotional obituary for his mother. Watch it above.
