How did your love story begin?

In the hospital. John was my nurse! He was impressed that I could sew, cook, do canning, and wanted children. I was impressed with his gentle nature, and that he served in the Navy. Who doesn’t love a man in a uniform? 💜

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

I’d have to say the birth of our son. Then all the wonderful first memories with him, like camping at the beach, having a wish granted for him that involved a special trip to Quantico to FBI Academy. Another special trip to Chicago for our 25th anniversary.

What would you do with $20,000?

We both want to take a train trip. There are several places in America we want to visit like The Grand Canyon, Alaska, also Canada. We would definitely pay off medical bills with some of the money.
