Isobel Varley, the Guinness World Record holder as the female senior citizen with the most tattoos passed away at the age of 77.
After a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease, Varley died on Monday.
Varley got her first two tattoos in 1986—a bird on her shoulder and a flower on her thigh. The rest was history.
“I just got the bug. I couldn’t stop,” she said about her tattoo fetish.
Varley claimed she spent $12,000-$15,000 on her tattoos. At the time when she won the award for the most tattooed female senior citizen, her most recent tat was of a heart on her sternum. The inside of the heart said, “Millennium.”
Approximately 70% of her body was covered in tattoos.
