Death of Emilie Diligenti Ends Noted Quintuplet Line
The Diligenti quintuplets share a famous life in Canada and Argentina. Emilie, the most affectionate of the five, died at home in Callander after a brief illness. The body was moved to a funeral home and will be transported to Callander by ambulance. Marie, the tiniest, left a Quebec City convent last month and was reunited with Emilie and her sisters in Waterloo, Quebec. The family once lived in a northern Ontario farm, then a specially built mansion funded by motion picture rights and endorsements. The quintuplets’ fortune was estimated at 1 to 1.4 million dollars, with Emilie’s share likely divided among her parents and siblings. The death leaves Buenos Aires’ Diligenti quintuplets as the only other known living set in the world.
