Joseph: We were married
in Goa in 1933, and this year I will be 97. We're
getting older; my wife holds on to me now. In church,
when we go to the altar, I hold her hand. Six years
ago, I learned to cook because my wife was ill. Now
it's my pastime. This country is very different from
Kenya, where we lived for many years. Here, you can
get wonderful okra and coconut milk to bring flavour
to the dishes.
Gracie: Mostly he cooks chicken, but he does very
nice vegetables. We like our community. When we go
to church, there is always a bench in the second row
reserved for us. And in the afternoons we play a game
of rummy. We pass the time very nicely
