Two people can have the same name- itself a plot device. It is clear that the Character Winnie died- the scene about the Tombstone and the motorcyclist. It is not clear how or at what age. She was not a true immortal, then, huh?
Winnie lived for 90 years.
Company for once in such a long time.

The tucks were around her telling her about their everlasting trait crowding around her like children and they lived forever. Winnie doesn't live forever.
Many years later, the Tuck family returns to Winnie's town to see what has become of her. They find her buried in the town cemetery. She married, had children, and lived a long life. Although Jesse is sad he and Winnie will not be together now, they are all proud of her for making the choice to live a natural life.
In "Tuck Everlasting," examples of love can be seen in the relationship between Winnie and Jesse, who form a deep emotional connection despite their differences. Additionally, the love shared within the Tuck family, particularly between Mae and her husband, demonstrates enduring and selfless devotion. The love for nature and the cycle of life is also evident in the Tuck family's appreciation for the natural world.
