HONOLULU (KHON2) — It’s a remarkable milestone to recognize. KHON2 would like to give a special birthday shout-out to Fujie Inouye, who just celebrated her 108th birthday.
Fujie officially turned 108 years old on April 12, but she was surrounded by family, friends and even Lt. Gov. Sylvia Luke for her birthday party on Saturday, April 19.
Born in Keala-Kekua Kona, Fujie was the oldest of nine children and worked on her family’s coffee farm.
She raised three children and now celebrates her birthday with two grandchildren.
Her family said her secret to long life is a healthy diet rich in veggies, fish and medication — plus a daily dose of soap operas including “Young and the Restless” and “Days of Our Lives.”
While we’re not quite positive, her family believes that at 108, she may be the oldest living person on Oahu.
