The world’s oldest person, Tomiko Itooka, died the night of Dec. 29. She died from natural causes and lived to be 116 years and 220 days old.

Born in 1908, she raised four children, ran a family textile factory during World War II, and remained an avid hiker into her 80s.

The Japanese woman became the oldest living person in August after the death of 117-year-old Maria Branyas Morera
