Ann Dion, Last of the Historic Dion Quintuplets, Passes Away at 91

Ann Dion, the final surviving member of the Dion quintuplets, has died at the age of 91, as reported by the "New York Times." The quintuplets, famously referred to as the "Canadian Miracle," were born on May 28, 1934, in Ontario, Canada, and made history as the first set of five siblings to survive infancy, a significant medical milestone at the time.

The sisters gained international attention shortly after their birth, being described as a "phenomenon" by the media. They became a local tourist attraction, drawing thousands of visitors eager to witness the rare occurrence.

Over the years, the sisters faced various challenges, with each passing away at different ages: Emily died at twenty, Mary at thirty-six after battling depression, Yvonne succumbed to illness, and Cecile passed away in August 2025.

With Ann Dion's death, the remarkable narrative of the Dion quintuplets comes to an end, symbolizing resilience and the struggle for survival in an era when such outcomes were far from guaranteed.
