Rest in peace, Mrs. Kane Tanaka (1903-2022). 😥 

Interested in supercentenarians since 27 July 2018.
First supercentenarian I learned about: Kane Tanaka (1903-2022)

Today, had Kane been alive, would have brought the long-coveted second centeni vicenarian. Sad it wasn't so. If Lucile doesn't reach it, it will be many many years before another gets the chance.
