Dr. Coles' Supercentenarian Institute
The GRG announces the age validation of Lucille Winifred Marusek (née Martens). Lucille was born on 2 May 1913 in Texas Township, Kalamazoo County, Michigan, USA to John and Inez Martens. She had at least 3 siblings. On 29 April 1950, Lucille married Stephen James Marusek in Kalamazoo, Kalamazoo County, Michigan. Lucille was sadly widowed on 19 January 2007. She died in Bradenton, Florida, USA on 20 September 2023 at the age of 110 years, 141 days.
Her age was verified by myself and Waclaw Jan Kroczek, validated by the GRG on 31 January 2024.
The Gerontology Research Group (GRG) is a global non-profit dedicated to validating, recording, and researching supercentenarians — those aged 110 or older. Founded in 1990, we focus on human longevity, healthy aging, and studying the lives of the world’s oldest people.
Our work requires significant funding for research, travel, and maintaining our website. Any financial support would greatly aid our mission to advance the understanding of human longevity.
If you wish to support our research financially, please donate to our efforts, but only if you can afford it. We would greatly appreciate even a symbolic support. Thank you!
