Known as the ‘world’s oldest person’, Jeralean Talley, died last week at her home in Michigan. Ms. Talley turned 116-years old on May 23rd, 2015.

Her daughter, 77, said her Mother was a very beautiful and forgiving person. Talley was in the hospital for the week before her death but was brought home where she passed away in peace.

With the death of Jeralean, there are only two people left on earth that were born in the 1800’s. Susannah Jones from Brooklyn, New York was born July 1899 and Emma Morano from Italy in November 1899.
