Felix Mendelssohn died after a series of stokes in 4th November 1847, only months after the sudden death of his much loved sister, [[Fannie Mendelssohn]]-Bartholdy (Hensel) of an aneurysm. His ill-health in the final months of his life was exacerbated by his grief and almost certainly hastened his much too early death.
