Couple poised to celebrate 75th anniversary
Cor and Wim Overes from the village of Kudelstaart, near Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, are set to celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary on Sunday.
The couple, aged 100 and 101, met at the church in the next village and still live in their own home, under the watchful eye of daughter Truus.
Their secret is regularity, Truus told the Telegraaf. ‘ They always get up at the same time, they don’t smoke or drink and never go on holiday. It might sound boring, but they keep on going.’
