How did your love story begin?

I just quit my drinking/drugs. Went to a Bible College, I was a single dad with a 3 year old boy. In my junior year I met my wife. We were just friends. The next year we started to date. Got married in my senior year.

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

Growing as a family. We were both single parents when we met. We had three children together.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would put it into a school for children. Build a church, a gym, and kitchen to feed the kids. As time allows we hope to add on a dorm to house kids that have no home life. To build a giant green house and to grow cows and many other animals. To be self sufficient is our main goal. To be school of mechanics
