Remembered by Anna: Alex and I were true soulmates from the beginning. We met while both attending college at Bemidji State University, while at my first college home. Alex came over to our girls college house one night- me being the study geek I was, kept reading my college textbook and did not pay any attention to him. I do remember that night we asked him if he wanted some ice cream and he said "no I don't eat sweets." He still tells me to this day that he forgot everyone else's name but mine. I didn't see him for a few days after that first night, since I chickened to meet him at the BSU Football game, saying "I was busy" but really I was nervous to see him again, since I knew it was more than friends. Then Alex asked me out to a date at Chophouse and it has been pure bliss since! I decided to pursue my master's degree out in Denver, CO and we lived out there for 3 1/3 years. We now have a loving puppy Aura and live in Minnesota! We can't wait for 09/25/21! Remembered by Alex: Entering my final year of college I had plans to be single to keep a clear mind and focus on finishing school, which lasted all of two weeks. One night I needed to escape the shack Brent and I lived in so I went to a friend's girlfriend’s house, and that's where I met Anna for the first time. She was on the couch dressed in lounge clothes studying for a Human Sex class barely looking up to see who I was. She didn't seem to care that I was even in their living room, and I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. A few days later I had a little social hour, so I asked my friend to invite her over. To my surprise she actually showed up! We hit it off all night so I asked her to dinner at the second fanciest restaurant in Bemidji, being a college student on a budget. Dinner was so effortless that we wanted to do it again and again, so here we are. Through tough camping excursions, long road trips, the trials of life, many meals and some amazing experiences we have become an unbreakable duo.
