A small and shiny marker sits at the corner of a family plot at Lakeview Cemetery in Ludington, Michigan. There actually is no grave for this person, instead the marker serves as a memorial for a woman who lost her life in what is the most famous shipwreck in history, the sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic.

MY APOLOGIES TO ALL THOSE WHO KEEP TRACK, I INADVERTENTLY SAID "HMS" RATHER THAN "RMS" IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS PODCAST.
