Happy Anniversay

LUBEC, Maine -- Kathleen and Waldo Tarbell have a big anniversary to celebrate Saturday -- their 80th.

The Maine couple married in 1927, during Calvin Coolidge's presidency.

They will celebrate at an anniversary party at the Oceanview Nursing Home, where they share a large room.

The Tarbells said marriage has changed them. Kathleen said she's been a Democrat her entire adult life. But Waldo, originally a Republican, has turned Democrat.

He added that she "converted" him.

I feel a wee bit of comfort for them not stating that after 80 years of marriage they're not both ready to die..
