How did your love story begin?

I met Rich down the river in NE Philadelphia. He was with some of his friends and he threw a frisbee over to where I was sitting with my friend Carol. We hit it off immediately! He was handsome and charming and he still is to this day! We eventually went on our first date and I know right away he was the one! We truly do enjoy each other’s company even to this day! We’ve made a beautiful family and they are starting their families so we have more time to travel and spend time together !!

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

We traveled in 2011 to Hawaii to celebrate our 25th anniversary! It was the first time we had traveled that far for that long,2 weeks, without our 4 children! It was spectacular seeing such a beautiful state with the one person I Love sharing my time with!! 3 of our children are married and we have 2 granddaughters and 1 grandson and another grandson on the way! So wonderful as grandparents to watch how wonderful our children have had the opportunity to raise children and enjoy being parents!

What would you do with $20,000?

Probably treat ourselves to a trip somewhere in the US where we’ve never been before! Also we would give some money to our 4 children to help them as they’re the reason we enjoy our lives!!
