Today, Mrs. Idalina Moniz, the 4th oldest living person in Portugal, celebrates her 110th birthday!
Ms. Idalina Moniz was born on 28 October 1916, in the parish of Ribeirinha, municipality of Ribeira Grande, on the island of São Miguel, Azores, where she currently lives. She is the first person from the Azores to reach 110 years of age while residing in Portuguese territory, as all other Azorean supercentenarians were emigrants in other countries. She is the second oldest living person born in the Azores, after Rosa Furtado (who lives in the USA).
Muitos parabéns senhora Idalina! 🌺

Muitos parabéns à Sra. Idalina Moniz! ❤️ It's such an important national milestone (it's been a good year for those) to finally have a (non-emigrant) supercentenarian from the Azores!

When the young commander of the guard declared his love for her, she rejected him simply because his frivolity startled her. "See how simple he is," she told Amaranta. "He says that he’s dying because of me, as if I were a bad case of colic."
