On January 11, 2001, Princess Vera Konstantinovna, a representative of Imperial Blood, passed away.

She was born in Pavlovsk on April 24 (April 11 in the old style), 1906, and was the youngest daughter of Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich (1858, 1915) and Grand Duchess Elizabeth Mavrikievna (1865, 1927).

While in exile, Princess Vera served as the honorary chairwoman of the Association of Members of the House of Romanov. She was also an honorary member of the Russian Imperial Union-Order and the Supreme Monarchist Council.

Vera Konstantinovna remained the only Romanov who remembered the pre-revolutionary era and her famous relatives. She embodied the best traditions of the House of Romanov and earned great respect among the Russian emigration.

Princess Vera passed away in the Tolstoy Foundation nursing home in Valley Cottage, New York, on January 11, 2001, at the age of 94. She was buried next to her brother, Prince Georgy Konstantinovich, at the cemetery of the Russian Orthodox Novo-Diveevo Monastery in Nanuet, New York.

Eternal memory! Eternal memory!
