World’s Oldest Woman, Violet Brown dies at 117!

September 19,2017
Share:
By Rita Chioma,
A woman who is regarded as the the World’s Oldest Person, Violet Brown has died in Jamaica at the age of 117 years and 189 days old.
Jamaica’s Prime Minister Andrew Holness has expressed his condolences in a Facebook post, calling her “an inspiring woman.”
The woman known as “Aunt V” died Friday at a local hospital, where she had been treated for heart arrhythmia and dehydration.
With her death, the Gerontology Research Group lists Nabi Tajima of Japan as the oldest surviving person.
She was born on Aug. 4, 1900 and had seen three centuries.
Brown spent much of her life cutting sugar cane.
She remained active in her church until recently and credited her longevity to hard work and her Christian faith.
She had four sons and two daughters. Her eldest son died in April at age 97.
