We met as teenagers and reconnected over 20 years after graduation. We quickly fell in love and began our happily ever after.
We would like to thank you for supporting The Storks 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 knew each other as teenagers but reconnected 23 years after graduation through Facebook. He was living in Arizona at the time but came to Oregon to visit his family and we met up for a drink to “catch up” and there was a spark between us. Six months later after a few more visits and countless calls and texts, he had relocated to Oregon to be with me. We married 4 years later.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?So many amazing memories! We love hiking and chasing waterfalls. We’ve done a lot of traveling together and we make date nights a priority in our marriage. Love spending time with our children and grandchildren as well. The day he proposed will always be a favorite memory as well as our wedding day and honeymoon in Mexico. But, the quiet moments between us are also so special and many favorite memories as well. I love doing life with this man.
What would you do with $20,000?We love to travel so we’d probably take a trip first to celebrate. We are also currently house hunting so the rest would go towards buying and getting settled into a new home.
