Dominican sister who turned 113 April 20 has once again captivated international attention after Guinness World Records has named her as the world's oldest nun — for the second year in a row.
Sr. Francis Dominici Piscatella, Italian American from Long Island, New York, has been a religious sister for 95 years. Last year the record-keeping organization gave Piscatella the same title of "oldest nun," and with it came widespread attention in national media: She has appeared in People magazine, the New York Post and "Good Morning America," as well as in local newscasts and international outlets.
