BIOGRAPHY

Lea Koplon was born in the United States on 27 November 1913. She lived in Chicago before moving to Phoenix, Arizona, where she was married for 50 years.

She attributed her longevity to a healthy diet and a positive outlook. Although she enjoyed a variety of foods, one of her favorites was Lou Malnati’s pizza, which she chose to celebrate her 110th birthday.

Lea Koplon passed away in Scottsdale, Arizona, on 20 February 2024, at the age of 110 years, 85 days.
