He joins 24 others, a newlywed couple from Maine, a young man whose presence is connected to a bet, four retired women in their early 60s from Minneapolis (three widows and one never married), three widows in their early 70s from Florida (originally teachers in New York), and seven married couples in their 50s, 60s, and 70s.
