How did your love story begin?

A true Romeo & Juliet love story.We began as friends & I asked Daniel to be my honorary escort for my Quinceañera (like a Sweet 16 ball style.)Feelings from friendship developed & Daniel asked my father to date me. He being a strong traditional Hispanic man he said No.Even then Daniel was a respectful man,& told me he couldn't talk to me anymore.He didn't as much as I tried to. But that wasn't the end of our love story 35yrs & a lifetime later,we reconnected & have been together since.

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

The moment we realized our love was always in our hearts after 35 years. We loved one another then and even after all the time had passed our young love had been a real love. This time with my father's blessing. Our life is so blessed with memories in the making everyday. We cherish the memories we are making together as a blended family. Especially as grandbabies enter our lives we're so very blessed and so very grateful.

What would you do with $20,000?

Well our little Casita needs a little help. We are a blended family and as the family is growing , the next one due in December. We'd invest the money into a little remodel to accommodate the familia! Everyone loves coming to Papá Chief and Nana's house But we're out growing the Casita. WE absolutely love it!
