The oldest known living person in Argentina, Angélica Tiscornia, celebrated her 113th birthday in Buenos Aires on August 22nd.
The director of her nursing home informed LongeviQuest that Angélica Tiscornia spent a delightful day celebrating, enjoying cake and traditional Argentine dishes, accompanied by a violinist performing at her side, and surrounded by the company of fellow residents.
Tiscornia was born in Gualeguay, Entre Ríos Province, Argentina, on 22 August 1912. She had six siblings, all of whom she outlived. At some point, she got married and went on to have a daughter named Marta. She outlived her only daughter, who passed away due to heart problems. In 1973, she moved to the city of Buenos Aires where she has resided ever since.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Mrs. Tiscornia on her 113th birthday. We would also like to extend our gratitude to her nursing home for sharing photos from the celebration.
