How did your love story begin?

It began in 1987 in high school: We met through a friend of mine who had a class with her and she told him she liked me. I liked her too but had no idea she felt the same. As we continued to see each other, we had feelings like no other. We parted ways when times got tough for me. My dad died, and I had to grow up fast, losing touch with her and feeling lost for a long time. We reconnected in 2018 and we dated off and on until 2024 we made the best decision ever to stay together.

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

All of our times we spent together in high school going to places like concerts and events and having dreams about traveling together around the world that comes true today: we starting to travel together all over the world; it was last year in Dubai for her birthday with dinner in the sky!

What would you do with $20,000?

We would use half to pay for my mom & sister head stones. Also both of us and our kids and grandkids can go on a family vacation together somewhere after our wedding on September 3rd 2026 in Costa Rica.
