\u201cIn her final months, she was surrounded only by her closest family, who chose to keep things very private,\u201d the source said. \u201cEven longtime friends weren\u2019t fully aware of what was happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

But there was one alarming signal in March \u2014 she listed her \u201cdream home\u201d in Los Angeles for $29 million, which surprised her friends given that she had previously said she planned to remain there permanently, People reported.<\/p>\n

A source also told the outlet that Keaton was known for walking her dog daily in her Brentwood neighborhood, but was not seen for the past couple of months.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe loved her neighborhood,\u201d the source said. \u201cUp until just a few months ago, she\u2019d walk her dog every day. She was usually dressed the same, with a hat and her signature sunglasses regardless of the weather.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe was always very nice, funny and chatty,\u201d the source continued. \u201cShe\u2019d talk to her dog like he was a person. She was eccentric and had this old-school Hollywood aura. She was very, very special.\u201d<\/p>\n
