How did your love story begin?

In 1996 or so we got computers and was shown MIRC. We started chatting because we were learning to use the internet. The chats were clean and used to teach not for romance. By chance, Linda met Rick’s sister and she started us talking a bit. 2 or more years later, we met in person. 28 years later and still in love. We are in our 70th decade of life and going strong Lots of interesting details to share with you

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

Meeting on the internet before it was really the internet with one of us in Georgia and the other in California.

What would you do with $20,000?

Take a long vacation and pay our Medical bills. I’m 9 years older than Rick is and he has Alzheimer’s. We need to live it UP while we can
