Faye's Version: The year was 1986 and my BFF (Yvette Spencer) and I was heading back home after having a wonderful time at Madi Gras in New Orleans. We decided we would go the back way and stop in Tuscaloosa to see her brother and my friend, Otis. So, we get there and walk in and this guy is sitting on the sofa reading a book. We said hello and he looks up and says, "Hi." When I saw his eyes, I said to myself, "that's him!" I was trying to play it cool, but I thought he was the finest thing I had ever seen! Now, after his, "hi", his eyes go right back to that book. You would think I'd be disappointed, but oh no. I am now saying to myself, "Lord, he is smart too?" LOL! We visited with Otis and we left and headed home to Birmingham. When I got home, it was well after midnight but I woke my mom up and said, "Get up because I met my husband tonight." She said, "Whatcha talking about??" She got up and washed her face. Then she began this series of questions that I couldn't even answer! I didn't know where he was from, his last name, and I certainly didn't know his parents! BUT, I knew he was the one for me. I got his number from Otis and called him and asked him out. Yep I sure did. And yep, he said yes! We began dating and the rest is history! Darrell's Version: "What she said...." LOL!!
