Guinness' World oldest living man dies

In 1903 on Friday the 13th day of the month of March, Yasutaro Koide was born in Tsuruga, Fukui, Japan. On August 21, 2015, following the death of Sakari Momoi on July 5, 2015 (who lived for 112 years 150 days) Yasutaro Koide was officially recognized as the oldest living man by Guinness World Records. He died at the age of 112 years 312 days early today, in the Japanese city of Nagoya, said Akira Yamase, a representative of Japan's ministry of health, labor and welfare. He is survived by 7 children, 9 grandchildren and 1 great grand children. May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
