FLOSSIE PAGE

'Flossie Page' (Haven, Kansas, June 12, 1893 – Butler County, Kansas, February 22, 2006) was an American supercentenarian who broke the record for the oldest person of Kansas on record on February 9, 2006, the previous record of 112 years 241 days having been set by Katherine Jones in 1992, but she died exactly two weeks after achieving this feat.
Page ranked as the sixth-oldest person in the U.S. and eleventh in the world when she died, aged 112 years and 255 days.
After graduating from high school, she taught at a one-room school house near Lewis, and later worked at the "War Risk and Insurance Department" in Washington, D.C. upon the start of the Second World War. Page married Fredric William Page in 1926. He died in 1967. She attributed her longevity to living a moral life, and taking no medication whatsoever.
