DO YOU KNOW TILLIE KUPFERSCHMIDT?

I didn't, before today. I was on StumbleUpon and came across an article featured on PBS about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire - and if you know know about THAT, well, then, I'm slightly ashamed of you. I found the article interesting, and at the very end they had a picture of this young girl's gravestone.

She was seventeen years old. She died on March 25th, 1911.
There was no birthday listed. I wish there was.

I feel like I should do something important or useful or something, anything to commemorate this young woman's memory. I don't think that I'm able to do much, but I can do this:

In Memory of Tillie Kupferschmidt.
