They met while working at the same hospital. Joseph tried to make conversation with Carlene while she was working and he saw her while patrolling the hospital floors for security checks, They did not keep in touch. One night Joe was working on her floor and they started talking again, it took only about a week and they were already smitten with each other. The pair started dating January 1st of 2020 and have been glued to each other ever since!
It was a usual night in after stopping at a diner and they came home and started watching tv when Joe went beside carlene and started digging under the Christmas tree while she was oblivious and worried about what was going on in the show. Joseph then got down on one knee and asked Carlene to marry him while she thought he was joking around and had a ring pop in the box, needlessly to say it was for real and they are now on their way to say “I do”.
