At the age of 106, she was reported to still have a robust character and demonstrated a clear understanding of her desires and aversions.

Modesta Vivas passed away in the commune of Valbonne in the Alpes-Maritimes department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, on 14 December 2024, at the age of 110 years.
