She was buried at the Masjid Batu 4 Muslim Cemetery in Kampung Bendahara.
Meanwhile, her youngest daughter Tom Khamis, 67, said her mother could still talk and eat as usual until dawn today.
"She still had an appetite although she was not well due to old age. There was no illness, but she was tired for the last two weeks," she said.
"I have been here to look after her since last week after hearing she was becoming more tired, before this she was staying in my house in Kuala Nerang," she said.
