Jolie aunt dies of breast cancer days after op-ed

FILE- In this Aug. 13, 2003 file photo, actress Angelina Jolie arrives at the Mathaeser cinema in Munich, Southern Germany, to attend the German premiere of her latest movie "Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life." Less than two weeks after Jolie had a double mastectomy to avoid breast cancer, her aunt has died from the disease. Jolie’s aunt Debbie Martin died at age 61 Sunday in a San Diego-area hospital, her husband Ron Martin tells The Associated Press. Debbie Martin was the younger sister of Jolie’s mother Marcheline Bertrand, whose own death from cancer in 2007 inspired the surgery that Jolie described in a May 14 New York Times op-ed.
