BIOGRAPHY
Tsuya Imanishi (今西艶) was born in Japan on 15 June 1915.
At the age of 105, a celebration was held in her honour as the oldest living person in Konan City at the day-care centre she attended. At the time, she reportedly attended the centre three times a week. When presented with a bouquet of flowers, she humorously asked, “Which is preƫer, me or the flowers?”
At the age of 107, when asked about the source of her good health, she replied, “Not overthinking things and eating all kinds of food.” At the age of 111, she was still living at home and attending a day-care centre.
She currently lives in Konan City, Kochi Prefecture, Japan.
