Charles and Audrey Cousins.
Charles and Audrey Cousins celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary on September 13. The couple credits the longevity of their union to the enduring love and deep respect they have for each other, as well as their total understanding of each other.
Audrey, more popularly known as ‘Miss Cherry’, shared with
Family and Religion her “budding romance” with her husband, whom she said she knew from they were children growing up in Portland.
“I lived in Blue Hole and he lived on an adjoining property. He would walk through our property to go to his, which is a little distance from Blue Hole,” she said. Miss Cherry added that her mother would normally share their breakfast with Charles and that would “‘bun” her because, by giving him some of the food, there was less for her to eat, and back then, she said, bursting out into laughter, she was not that charitable!
