“Our story is an enduring love story. We met in high school. I was a freshman and he was a senior. After several weeks of hanging around my locker and leaving silly notes, he asked me out. My parents reluctantly agreed to let me go to a high school basketball game with this older guy. While I sat and waited for him to arrive, watching the minutes tick away as it got later and later, I assumed the worst. I thought it must have all been a joke at my expense and that he wasn’t coming. But then he arrived and I found out that in his excitement to pick me up on the icy roads that led to my rural house, his car had gone off the road and he had to wait for a tow truck to pull him out before he could pick me up! Surprisingly my Dad still let me go with him. 31 years, 3 states, and 4 kids later, we are still together and more in love than ever!”
