Rosa’s age was a secret until she reveals to the public she was (then) 105. She is now 106 1/2 years old. People ask her age at one time, and she refuses to reveal it. I unwittingly ask a lady her age one time and she is reluctant to divulge her age and only gave her year and I figure it out and I without a doubt congratulated her! Well, ladies and gentlemen, that is the fact they will never get rid of and never to forget it, no matter how hard you try.
There is a similar case to Rosa Rio. The man from Oakland, has a descendant of the brother of Napoleon, never tells his age until he went Home to be with the Lord. His name was Herbert Benton “Ben” Connor and he was only 83 years of age and he is from Rhode Island. He has no immediate family.
Rosa Rio is no longer living.
