How did your love story begin?

We met in what was then Madras, India (now Chennai) in 1991 by complete happenstance. George proposed to Vandana on a beautiful Madras beach, and we were engaged 45 hours after meeting. We had so many things in common that we just needed a spark.

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

We’ve had so many. It would have to be celebrating our younger son’s marrying the love of his life, giving us our first daughter(-in-law) two years ago.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would give some to charity, support some local businesses in our neck of the woods, and save the rest for a 35th anniversary trip somewhere nice in the Spring of 2027. Thank you for your consideration!
