Nun Lucile Randon, known as Sister André, has died at the age of 118. She survived two world wars, the Spanish flu and the coronavirus pandemic.
In France, at the age of 118, the oldest inhabitant of the planet, Lucille Randon (sister Andre) died. Reuters reported this on January 17.
He lived in a nursing home in the city of Toulon in southern France, where he died on Tuesday night.
Randon was born on February 11, 1904, and in 1944 she joined a Catholic charitable order and took the name Sister André.
According to French media, for a long time he was honored as the oldest European, but after the death of Japanese woman Kane Tanaka at the age of 119 in April 2022, Randon became the oldest living person in the world.
He survived two world wars, the Spanish flu pandemic and COVID-19. In recent years, Sister Andre became blind and moved to a wheelchair, but until the age of 108 she continued to work in the monastery.
After the death of Randon, the Spaniard Maria Branas Morera, who was born on March 4, 1907 (she is now 115 years old), became the oldest living person on Earth.
Remember that in February 2021, sister Andre was infected with the coronavirus, but suffered from the disease easily.
