Victim

The Resume

    (February 2, 1912-May 31, 2009)
    Born in London, England, United Kingdom
    Birth name is Elizabeth Gladys Dean
    Last surviving passenger on The Titanic (sank on April 15, 1912)
    Traveled in steerage with her parents and two year old brother
    Her mother and brother also survived

Why she might be annoying:

    She was far too young to have any personal memories of the Titanic disaster.
    She did not find out she had been a passenger on the Titanic until she was eight.
    She was opposed to plans to raise the remains of the ship.
    She was offended by a Dr. Who episode that featured a spaceship called The Titanic.
    She refused to participate in Titanic-related conventions and media events until her seventies.
    She had to sell some of her Titanic memorabilia to pay her expenses when she broke her hip.

Why she might not be annoying:

    At two months she was the youngest passenger on The Titanic.
    Her father did not survive the disaster.
    After the ship sank, her family had to abandon their plans to find a better life in America.
    On the return voyage to England, she was doted on by other passengers.
    She made maps for the British army during World War Two.
    James Cameron, director of 'The Titanic' (1997), and stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet supported a fund to pay her medical bills.
    The president of the Titanic International Society said, 'She was a remarkable, sparkling lady. She knew her place in history and was always willing to share her story with others.'
