Oldest American

With the death of Mary Josephine Ray at age 114 and 294 days, Neva Morris of Ames, Iowa is now the oldest American at age 114 years and 216 days. She's also the second oldest in the world, next to Kama Chinen of Japan at age 114 years and 301 days. Does anyone live to 115 years? What is most amazing to me is that Morris remains mentally intact, and the only physical signs of her age are hearing and visual deficiencies, along with appearance.
