'Titanic' survivor who never spoke of tragedy dies at 99
Independent, The (London), May 9, 2006 by Andrew Gumbel in Los Angeles
The last passenger on the Titanic who was old enough to remember the horror of watching the ship sink in the icy waters of the north Atlantic has died, aged 99.
Lillian Gertrud Asplund was just shy of her sixth birthday when she and her large family made the ill-fated passage on the maiden voyage of the supposedly unsinkable ship. She lost a father and three brothers, including her twin, in the disaster. She, her mother and her younger brother, meanwhile, were invited to take their places in one of the first lifeboats - only realising later that there would be no escape for those they had left behind.
The family was on its way back from Sweden, its ancestral home, to western Massachusetts, which is where Ms Asplund lived the rest of her life. She worked as a clerk for the State Mutual Life Insurance company, never married and never uttered a word publicly about her ordeal.
At various times, she was approached by Titanic history buffs and even offered money to speak about it but she always refused.
There are two other known survivors of the Titanic still living but both were just infants and too young to remember anything. Both live in England: Barbara Joyce West Dain-ton, who lives in Truro, and Elizabeth Gladys Dean, who lives in Southampton.

May have swallowed a bit of vomit in the process while watching the "I'm the king of the world" scene, but I still survived.

Oh yes, I remember you! James Cameron was here awhile back but he just left me here, why, why? Can't you rescue me? I may be old, but I still have my looks, and my skin is as supple as ever, never dry!

I lived through it as well. Pisses me off that I didn't get laid after watching that movie.
Last time I EVER sit through a chick flick unless the sex is up front.
