What a woman. Traute Lafrenz, the last of the White Rose anti-Nazi resistance, died aged 103:

"The last surviving member of the White Rose resistance movement, which urged Germans to stand up against Nazi tyranny during the second world war, has died, according to the group’s historical foundation.

(...)

Lafrenz was one of few people who, “faced with the crimes of the Nazis, had the courage to listen to the voice of her conscience and to rebel against the dictatorship and the genocide of the Jews”, [German president, Frank-Walter Steinmeier]"
