    Awww, man. I was hoping she would be here for the Centennial. :(  I'm just glad DiCaprio, Winslet and the rest made sure she was taken care of in her last days.

    Aww... even the mention of the Titanic makes me want to cry.

    I blame Celine Dion for making me watch the movie. And the movie for informing me on what happened on the Titanic. >.<

    RIP Millvina Dean.

    I saw that this afternoon. Pretty sad in a sort of "end of an era" way, but she lived a long and very eventful life, so not much to really be sad about there.

    wait....didn't the last survivor die months ago? and then a couple years before that? I remember a topic here a little while ago about the same thing. How many "last" survivors of the titanic are there?

    I thought you were talking about the last person who actually paid for a ticket and endured the whole movie....heard she was a vegetable after the credits rolled.

    in all seriousness, technically, she was a survivor of the tragedy, but at such an age at the time that she has no memories of what happened.
    (which is a blessing, i think she once said.)

    But the last person who was old enough to understand and remember what was happening, when they passed away, i know they deserved peace.

    that's my 2 cents.
    semantics aside, i wish her peace now.

    My girlfriend actually met her a few times when she used to live in Southampton. Millvina Dean was a regular at the hotel she worked at and by all accounts she let the whole thing go to her head - she used to expect freebies all the time and if anyone questioned it the usual response was "Don't you know who I am?!"

    Last survivor dies.

    May she rest in peace. She is in a better place now. The ship itself is slowly dying she will be gone in a few years. She'll be a pile of rust.:rip

    Wow, although she never actually DID anything, it's still a great legacy.
