Well, its an end of an era. No longer can we say that there are those who have lived to survive this ghastly event in maritime history. May her last voyage be last eventful than her first.

My she and all who were involved in this tragedy be never forgotten and R.I.P.

JUsat read about it here, Sad to see the last of them to go, may it never happen in such a scale again (yes there have been larger since, but here is hoping!)

RIP

I just got done visiting the Branson Missouri Titanic museum last Wednesday! No joke, they said one survivor left and it had a plaque with her name on it, as I guess she was there to christen the opening of the museum. I was very impressed with it and said to see her go

God be with her family

So very sad she died struggling to pay her care home bills

RIP Millvina.
