LongeviQuest is saddened to report that Romana Carli of Lazio, Italy, passed away at 110 years old.

Romana Carli was born on 16 July 1914 in Gorizia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy.

Romana spent the wartime in Pisa with her grandmother while her father was a reservist and her mother was a refugee in World War I.

From a young age, she showed artistic talent, and while in Tuscany, she heard church hymns for the first time. By the age of 10 or 11, she was already singing in the theater, having begun her singing in the church where her grandmother took her in Pisa.
