Aída Pizarro Serrano, the oldest (documented) living person in Chile, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family in Santiago on November 17, at the age of 112 years, 13 days.
Aída Pizarro Serrano was born in Pirque, Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile, on 4 November 1912. Out of 14 children born to her parents, she was the last surviving sibling. Raised with a deep devotion to Catholicism, she enjoyed singing in the church choir with her father and sisters, where she learned Latin masses and hymns. As a young woman, she was a committed leader, serving as a catechist and president of the Catholic youth group at her church.
At some point, she married a young businessman, Leoncio, and they settled in Santiago, where they had four children. As of September 2024, she also had 10 grandchildren and 22 great-grandchildren. She always sought to be financially independent, and every summer she and her husband ran a successful watermelon and melon business at their home. A skilled cook, she prepared large quantities of food to share with others. In her later years, she participated in a local parish club, where she enjoyed socializing and engaging in various activities.
On 5 March 2024, following the passing of 113-year-old Eudocia Barría Barrientos, she became the oldest (known) living person in Chile, at the age of 111 years, 122 days.
According to the LongeviQuest directory, Rosa Laura Torres Barra has succeeded her as the oldest living person in Chile, currently aged 111 years and 121 days as of November 18.
Rest in peace.
