Doña Leandra Becerra Lumbreras, México’s oldest living woman, died at her home in Zapopan, Jalisco, at the age of 127 years. Doña Leandra was born in Tula, Tamaulipas, but lived with her granddaughter at the time of her death.

She liked to knit, sing and talk about the time of the Revolution, her granddaughter said. One of her favorite stories was meeting Pancho Villa.

Doña Leandra was a healthy woman with no chronic diseases. Her granddaughter said that in recent years she spent much of her time sleeping.
