Lillian died in her home in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts on May 6, 2006 at the age of 99; she would have been 100 on October 21. She was buried in All Faiths Cemetery in Worcester alongside her father, mother, and brother.
Lillian's death left two living Titanic survivors, Barbara West and Millvina Dean; however, both were less than a year old at the time of the sinking and neither had any recollection of it. She was the last survivor who remembered the sinking first hand, having been five years old at the time.
