Emma Carroll

Emma Carroll was the oldest person in Iowa for about nine months, starting on the day that 111-year-old Hazel Blecha died. Emma Carroll died on July 10, 2007 at the age of 112. She was quite wrinkly.

In 2004, at the age of 109, Emma became the oldest person to ride in a hot air balloon. It would have been more impressive if she'd become the oldest person to ride on a hang glider.


Everything wrinkles.
