Later Life
Lillian's mother refused to discuss the disaster with anyone, telling Lillian that it was simply wrong to do so. Lillian agreed with her mother and throughout the rest of life hardly ever spoke of the disaster. Lillian's mother died on April 15, 1964, the 52nd anniversary of Titanic's sinking, and her brother, Felix, with whom Lillian lived, died in 1983. After her death, the steamship ticket she had held for so many years was sold at auction.

Famous quotes containing the word life:
“I devoutly believe it is the writer who has matured the film medium more than anyone else in Hollywood. Even when he knew nothing about his work, he brought at least knowledge of life and a more grown-up mind, a maturer feeling about the human being.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
“And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.”
