We met and moved in together 3 months later. We have been through so much; death, job loss, homelessness; yet love is unconditional 26 yrs+
We would like to thank you for supporting Nick and Melissa Dean in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
We met by chance at a gas station I was working at. When we began talking, there was just something there, like we had known each other for years. Over the past 26 years, it still feels like we just met and our conversations are just the same as they were those first days.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We took my sister and her 3 kids to where we grew up. My sister hadn't been back home in over 20 years and her kids had never been on a vacation to another state. It was a two-fold surprise, as it was the week of Father's Day and we didn't tell my dad we were coming. My sister lost her oldest son some years after this and I am forever blessed to have given her and my dad this one gift they'll always remember.
What would you do with $20,000?I would use the money to put a down payment on a home. After years of struggling just to get by, it would be nice to have something permanent to call our own.
