Gertrude Baines passed away at the Western Convalescent Hospital at 7:25 a.m. (10:25 a.m. ET) Friday, Guinness World Records said. Born in 1894, Baines became the world's oldest person in January after the death of another 115-year-old, Maria de Jesus, from Portugal, Guinness World Records said. At her 115th birthday party in April, Baines shook her head in disbelief when presented with the certificate saying she was now in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's oldest person.   "She told me that she owes her longevity to the Lord, that she never did drink, never did smoke, and she never did fool around," her doctor, Dr. Charles Witt, said in April. Baines, whose grandparents were slaves, worked as a maid in Ohio State University dormitories until her retirement, and lived at the Los Angeles convalescent home for more than 10 years.CNN<img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/09/12/article-0-06648AB5000005DC-276_465x596.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/09/12/article-0-0663E2B9000005DC-38_468x324.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Happy Birthday: A doctor presents Gertrude with a Guinness World Records' certificate naming her the world's oldest person living, as she celebrated her 115th birthday at the Western Convalescent Hospital in Los Angeles, on April 6 this year</blockquote>
