How did your love story begin?

We met on what we called the cruise. My best friend and I were driving in the car, and he wrote his motorcycle by. I wanted to ask him for a ride, but before the words could come out of my mouth, she asked him. He said yes, and they took off. They dated for about 2 to 3 months and broke up. We got together and dated. I wanted to get married he didn’t so we went our separate ways after 27 years. We found each other and finally tied the knot.

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

For us, some of our favorite memories are just being together, enjoying time together, taking day trips to the beach when we’re able. Laughing together, being playful, playing on our pool league together and recently becoming grandparents.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would go on the honeymoon we were never able to afford. In addition, we have never actually taken a vacation together in the entire time we’ve been married due to family health issues and deaths.
