Angela and Tim met in 2023 at Mercy Hospital, where Angela was working the front desk in administration on Tim’s very first day. He walked in, and while both were immediately captivated, Angela felt completely ignored and Tim was doing his absolute best not to be distracted on day one of a new job. As time went on, quick hellos turned into casual conversations, which soon became a daily routine. What started as friendship naturally grew, especially as they realized they were part of the same Young Professionals group. Wanting some company, they decided to attend a group outing together so neither had to go alone. After a brewery stop (where the food was, admittedly, terrible, and they were both starving), Tim asked Angela to dinner. On the drive home that night, just before Angela got on the highway, Tim called and asked a bold question: did she want to grab a drink on a work night? Anyone who knows Angela knows she’s usually in bed by 9 p.m. but this time was different. Excited and curious, she said yes, and they met for a drink at Canopy. From that night on, the rest was history. Weeks turned into months filled with long walks through Freedom Park, spontaneous lunches, dinners, drinks all over the city, and countless moments that made it clear they had found something special in each other. Something special that was the beginning of forever.
