Rita Rinna touches the forehead of her aunt, 113-year-old Mary Christian, in 2002. Christian was the oldest person in the United States when she died April 20, 2003, after coming down with a cold that turned into pneumonia. Christian was said to have enjoyed junk food and lived alone until she turned 102. She spent her final decade at the Creekside Care Center in San Pablo, California. AP Photo/Ben Margot
