i thought this was pretty cool. not that she died, but her connection to the anic
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(CNN) -- Millvina Dean, believed to be the last survivor of the anic, has died at 97, her friends confirmed Sunday.
Millvina Dean was just an infant when the RMS anic sank. Dean was just an infant when the RMS anic -- publicized as "practically unsinkable" and the largest passenger steamship at the time -- struck an iceberg on the night of April 14, 1912, during its maiden voyage from Southampton in southern England to New York. The ship sank less than three hours later, killing more than 1,500 people.
Brian Ticehurst, a friend of Dean, said she died at 8 a.m. Sunday.
Dean was hospitalized a few days ago for medical complications before returning to the Woodlands Ridge Nursing Home in Southampton, said Charles Haas, a friend and president of the anic International Society based in New Jersey.
A nurse at the home declined to comment on Dean's passing.
Haas said Dean's last public appearance was at the British anic Society's convention in April, which she attended with her longtime companion, Bruno Nordmanis.
"She only visited a short while, but she wowed everybody with her charm," Haas told CNN. "She seemed in good spirits."
Haas noted that Dean's death fell on May 31, exactly 98 years after the anic was launched.
While Dean's survival brought her celebrity-like status in some circles, she was 8 years old before she knew she was on the fateful ship. Dean, along with her young brother and mother, survived the sinking of the anic, but her mother didn't tell her about it until years later, Haas said.
Although she didn't have memories of the historic and tragic event, Dean, who never married or had children, became a larger presence for anic enthusiasts and historians over the past three decades.
"Having gone through that disaster she was given extra years and an extra dose of vitality," said Haas, who recalled escorting Dean to a anic society gala a few years ago.
Dean became the last known anic survivor after Barbara Joyce Dainton died in October 2007. The last American survivor, Lillian Asplund, died in May 2006.
Dean's death leaves only artifacts and videotaped interviews with survivors to "speak to us about the anic," Haas said.

ohhhhh, too soon?
Didnt she received money from leonardo dicaprio and the other actors for paying her hospital bills just before she died?
Interesting IMO, never heard of this. Reminds me of "Lucky" Larry Silverstein, the guy who bought Terrorism Insurance on the Twin Towers right before 9/11 and won $4.5 Billion dollars in court
I remember reading how giant glaciers conspired to kill those guys.
never heard of a anic conspiracy before but apparently there’s a Merchant meme about it so there must be something there IMO
There's a lot on it. Frankly, they took out the main opposition to the Fed. And many persons who were pro Fed canceled at the last minute.
Isa Straus was jewish though, maybe he put the iceberg there... am I doing this right?
They should've known better than to get in the way of greedy Jews.
But you claim he was against the Fed, which I guess it's a good thing in your book?
Maybe a ruse to embark everyone in the anic and then deploy a jewberg to kill em all?
Not sure what you're getting at. JP Morgan wasn't Jewish. But most the primary actors in installing the Fed were.
jew just know they were up to something, uh?
In 30 years these mother ers gonna be like "there are no icebergs anywhere over there the ship was clearly shrunk by sabotage"
IT'S OBVIOUS EXPLOSIVES HAD ALREADY BEEN DETONATED IN THE LOWER LEVELS OF TOWER 1 BEFORE THE PLANE ..ERR.. BOAT CRASHED
10 PASSENGERS WERE AGAINST THE CIA, AND THEY ALL HAPPENED TO DIE AS WELL
The is that sig?
The jews did 9/11 and blamed it on the Muslims IMO.
