Irene Dunham of Lansing is the oldest person in Michigan, and a survivor in more ways than one. Most notably, she survived the deadliest school massacre in U.S. history.

Irene turned 113 on Dec. 16, a birthday she shares with her 75-year-old son Bruce. When the 1927 Bath School Massacre happened, she was a senior in high school. Because she had stayed home with a sore throat, she was not at school that day. This did not spare her, entirely, however.
