The GRG announces the age validation of Fiorinda Rogante de Godoy. Fiorinda was born May 7th 1913 (claims June 26th) in Sao Paulo, Brazil to Italian Immigrants; Domingos and Joanina. She was baptised on June 21st 1913. Fiorinda was one of ten siblings, all of which she has outlived. On September 23rd 1933 she married Paolo de Godoy, after which they went on to have one child – a daughter – Aparecida, on January 3rd 1935. Aparecida married in 1959, after which Fiorinda lived with her daughter and son-in-law. Fiorinda’s husband had already passed by this time. Sadly, Fiorinda lost her daughter in more recent years, but she is now cared for by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Apart from requiring the use of a wheelchair for mobility, Fiorinda is reportedly in good health. She resides in Sao Paulo still, at the age of 110.
Fiorinda’s age was verified by myself and Guilherme Matheus, accepted as validated by the GRG with a date of January 6th 2024.
Welcome to the Gerontology Research Group (GRG). As a global non-profit scientific organization, we are dedicated to validating ages, recording, and researching supercentenarians — people who are at least 110 years old. With a history spanning 33 years since our founding in 1990, our passion lies in studying and creating knowledge about human longevity, healthy aging, and the lives of the oldest people on earth.
However, our vital research comes with significant costs. Maintaining our website, conducting research, and traveling great distances to meet the supercentenarians crucial to our studies all require substantial funding.
If you are in a position to support our work financially, we would be immensely grateful for your contribution. Your donation, no matter how symbolic, will help us continue our mission to advance the understanding of human longevity and healthy aging.
Thank you for considering supporting the Gerontology Research Group. Together, we can make strides in the field of gerontology and uncover the secrets to a long and healthy life.
