Answers: She died in 1989 from an aortic aneurysm.
On April 18, 1989, Ball complained of chest pains and was rushed to the emergency room of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. She was diagnosed as having a dissecting aortic aneurysm and underwent surgery for nearly eight hours. The surgery was successful and Ball was recovering; she was walking around her room with little assistance. On April 26, shortly before dawn, Ball awoke with severe back pains. Her aorta had ruptured in a second location and Ball quickly lost consciousness. All attempts to revive her proved unsuccessful and at approximately 5:17 a.m., Lucille Ball died at the age of 77.
She was initially interred in Forest Lawn – Hollywood Hills Cemetery in Los Angeles, but in 2002 her ashes were moved to the family plot at Lake View Cemetery in Jamestown, New York where Ball's mother, father, brother, and grandparents are buried.
Lucille Ball died April 26,1989, of a ruptured aorta, only days after she spent hours on surgery for a Dissecting Aortic Aneurysm. She was 77.

Lucy is still alive, shoving chocolate down her blouse, drinking vitameatavegiman and trying wacky ways to get into showbiz; every night on some television at some time on some channel somewhere in the world.
Now Elvis, Morrison and Kennedy; that's a whole other story. The first two are alive and well working at a car wash (owned by the third) somewhere in Montana.
