On September 28, 1996, Khaury recorded a video interview at the [[Bookmill|Montague Bookmill]]. He later suffered a heart attack at a ukulele festival at the nearby Montague Grange Hall in [[Montague, Massachusetts]]. He was hospitalized at the nearby [[Baystate_Health#Baystate_Franklin_Medical_Center|Franklin County Medical Center]] in [[Greenfield, Massachusetts|Greenfield]] for approximately three weeks before being discharged with strong admonitions not to perform again because of his health, weight, and dietary needs for his diabetic and heart conditions. He ignored the advice.

On November 30, 1996, Khaury was playing at a gala benefit hosted by the Women's Club of Minneapolis. He had let his third wife ("Miss Sue") know before the show that he was not feeling well, but did not want to disappoint his fans. Before the start of his performance, most of the audience had left. In the middle of performing his last number of the evening — a rendition of his hit, "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" — he suffered another heart attack on stage. His wife asked him if he was feeling all right, and he said he was not; she was helping him back to their table where he collapsed, and never regained consciousness.<ref>{{cite news|title=Tiny Tim Dies After Singing "Tulip" Song|url=http://www.deseretnews.com/article/528062/TINY-TIM-DIES-AFTER-SINGING-TULIP-SONG.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141231191453/http://www.deseretnews.com/article/528062/TINY-TIM-DIES-AFTER-SINGING-TULIP-SONG.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=December 31, 2014|agency=Associated Press|newspaper=Deseret News|date=December 2, 1996}}</ref> [[Emergency medical technician|EMT]]s performed on-site [[CPR]] and transported him to [[Hennepin County Medical Center]], where after repeated revival attempts, he was pronounced dead at 11:20 pm.<ref>{{cite web|title=Tiny Tim is Signing Off: The Tragic Tale of an Artist's Final, Fatal Performance: Twenty years ago, the 'Eternal Troubadour' collapsed on stage|url=https://medium.com/cuepoint/tiny-tim-is-signing-off-the-tragic-tale-of-an-artists-final-fatal-performance-50d6f223b42b#.pzcqrhk7m|author=Martell, Justin A.|publisher=medium.com|date=November 30, 2016}}</ref><ref name=bio>{{cite news |author=William Grimes |title=Tiny Tim, Singer, Dies at 64; Flirted, Chastely, With Fame |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1996/12/02/arts/tiny-tim-singer-dies-at-64-flirted-chastely-with-fame.html |quote=Tiny Tim, whose quavery falsetto and ukulele made ''Tiptoe Through the Tulips With Me'' a novelty hit in 1968, died on Saturday night at the [[Hennepin County Medical Center]] in Minneapolis.
