Ms. Elizabeth Francis, the oldest person in the USA and 3rd oldest person in the world, sadly passed away on 22nd October at the age of 115 years and 89 days.

She was born in Louisiana, USA on 25 July 1909. 

She was the oldest person in the world who lives at home rather than in a care facility. 

RIP Ms. Francis.

Rest in peace Elizabeth Francis

 

At least she became the oldest person born and residing in the United States.
