LongeviQuest is glad to report the addition of Fiorinda Rogante De Godoy to our ever-growing directory of supercentenarians. Her Brazilian supercentenarian status was validated by the Latin American Supercentenarians (LAS) on 30 October 2022.
Fiorinda Rogante de Godot was born on 7 May 1913 (which she claimed to be 26 June) in Santa Lucia, São Paulo, Brazil. Her Italian immigrant parents, Domingos Rogante and Joanina Anzelota, arrived in Brazil in 1901. The couple settled in Santa Lúcia, where they worked on coffee farms. She had nine siblings, all of whom she survived.

The family eventually relocated to Dobrada, where young Fiorinda met her future husband. On 23 September 1933, she married Paulo de Godoy. The marriage lasted only six years after having a daughter, Aparecida de Godoy (1935-2017), before Paulo passed away. Fiorinda was then left to raise her daughter alone.
On 27 June 2017, her only daughter passed away after a day of her claimed 104th birthday. She had two grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
Fiorinda Rogante de Godoy’s current residence is in Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil. Fiorinda recently celebrated her claimed birthday last June 2023 but records showed that she was actually born in May.
