How did your love story begin?

It began in 8th grade. We met at a dance and became boy/girlfriend. As we entered h.s we drifted apart. We reconnected end of Sr. year with unique story. Michelle’s mom played Cupid telling her coworker whose husband ironically taught a class Brian had about wanting to go to prom with him. So the word spread and Brian asked Michelle to prom. They continued a relationship while Brian joined the USAF then a long engagement that lasted almost 6 yrs as they planted roots to begin life together.

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

From a long engagement to wedding, to having children and now grandchildren we have built a mountain of memories. We picked a more recent one in which we rekindled our young love days as we walked the beaches of Turks and Caicos During a cruise with just us.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would set some aside for each of the grandkids to start a college fund. We would plan another trip together and keep the love young and flames burning.
