Aída Carmen Gandine Dodera was an Uruguayan supercentenarian whose age has been validated by the Latin American Supercentenarians (LAS). At the time of death, she was the oldest (known) living person in Uruguay.
Aída Carmen Gandine Dodera was born in Montevideo, Uruguay on 4 May 1910, to José Gandine and Carmen Dodera. She had a twin sister, Elida Josefa, and two younger brothers, Luis (born 1911) and Héctor (born 1912). In her youth, she was a neighbor of renowned biologist Clemente Estable.
On 15 March 1930, she married Rivera Francisco Carbone. Together, they had four children: Nilda Gladys (born 12 May 1930), Nelson Raúl (1932–1932), Teresita (born 1945), and Beatriz (born 1948). Teresita was the first child in the country identified with the Rh factor—a protein found in red blood cells that plays a critical role in determining blood type. Between the births of her first and second daughters, Aída experienced five miscarriages, including the loss of Nelson Raúl.
By her 110th birthday, she was the proud matriarch of a large family: three daughters, nine grandchildren (including Gerardo, Gabriela, and Román), 16 great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren. At 110, she was still able to move without assistance.
Gandine Dodera died in Montevideo, Uruguay, on 9 May 2020, at the age of 110 years, 5 days.
She became the oldest known (documented) living person in Uruguay, following the death of 109-year-old Rosalia Aguilar on 2 February 2019.
Her age was verified by Esteban González Olase and Fabrizio Villatoro, and validated by the LAS on 12 January 2020.
Following her death, then 109-year-old Blanca Luisa Cuitiño Barbier became the oldest known living person in Uruguay.
