    With her death, only one actor who played one of the original 124 Munchkins in the movie remains alive.

    Duccini died of natural causes in Solari Hospice Care Center in Las Vegas on Thursday.

    Her death was confirmed by Stephen Cox, author of "The Munchkins of Oz." He says he learned of it from Duccini's son.
