Where do we even begin! Dave and Jill actually knew each other back in high school. Jill grew up across the street of one of Dave's childhood friends, so they often hung out throughout those four years. David went to Bishop Timon, St Jude and Jillian went to Immaculata Academy in Hamburg. Dave was pretty quiet then. He was the typical nice guy who you'd always want in your corner. After high school, they all went their separate ways. Dave played hockey at SUNY Canton and Jill studied psychology at Medaille and later, her dreams took her to Washington DC to pursue a career in healthcare. Jill came back to Buffalo for a lengthy visit with family and friends. She had every intention on going back to DC but Dave changed that. Who knew David Panek, that quiet nice guy from high school, would be the one who'd keep Jill in the area and if you ask her, she wouldn't have it any other way. David messaged Jillian via facebook asking if she wanted to go grab a drink and catch up. Those of you who know Dave, know that Dave has the biggest heart and his passion for hockey is almost as big as his heart. He coached Timon JV hockey at the time and invited Jill to the Timon Hockey fundraiser which was a beer blast. Jillian went to the beer blast with Dave, with absolutely no expectations. She wasn't looking to date anyone whatsoever at the time and she figured that she'd gain a great friend. Little did she know that David would be not only her best friend and soulmate but he'd be her future husband.
