Kallu Dhani Ram (born 6 July 1923) Fiji trade unionist also involved in politics. Was alive in 2016, could've died since? Emlain Kabua (born February 1928) 1st First Lady of Marshall Islands 1979-1996. Also designed the flag of the island country. I expect her death would've been mentioned somewhere, was alive in 2020.
