French Woman Jeannette Laham Dies at 112

Jeannette Laham, a resident of Montpellier, Occitania, France, passed away on 12 March, at the age of 112 years, 39 days. Her passing was first reported by Les Grands Centenaires Français.

Laham was born in Armenitieres, Nord, Hauts-de-France, France, on 1 February 1914. In her youth, she was a classical ballet dancer. In her adulthood, Jeannette pursued the profession of a milliner, maintaining an air of elegance throughout her life by designing and crafting her own garments. Following an initial marriage that ended in separation, she relocated to Paris. Shortly before the onset of the Second World War, she met Jean Laham, a medical student, who would become her husband for 60 years.

After World War II, her husband, Jean, became head of the cardiology clinic at the Paris Faculty of Medicine and an associate professor of cardiology. In the 1970s, the couple traveled to Damascus, where Jean practiced cardiology and Jeannette provided him with support. However, they were compelled to leave Syria urgently in 1976.
