Sadly Rose Eaton passed away on 7 October 2022 aged 113. She was born on 23 August 1909 and was the second-oldest living person in the UK (just two days younger than Ethel Caterham).

Sad news. RIP Rose Eaton. Now Mrs. Caterham is the last living British person born in the 1900s decade.
Interested in supercentenarians since 27 July 2018.
First supercentenarian I learned about: Kane Tanaka (1903-2022)

Rest in peace, Rose Eaton.
She certainly had a very interesting life - participating in Jaguar rallies and motor races across Europe well into her octogenarian years. A few photos of her with her 1959 Jaguar X150, which was her regular transport until giving up her license aged 99.
