BIOGRAPHY
Sai Maehara was born in Tarumizu, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan, on 13 June 1910. She witnessed the 1914 eruption of Sakurajima. She was widowed shortly after World War II, and raised her four children (two sons and two daughters) on her own.
As of her 112th birthday, she had eight grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. She claimed that the secret of her longevity was that she spent her days leisurely and that she ate well.
