Once upon a time in a small town nestled in the San Francisco Peaks, two young souls crossed paths. Francine and Joe were just children then. Each with a zest for adventure and fun. Francine loved the outdoors, bicycling, hiking, ice skating and climbing trees, "No Fear Franny". Joe also loved outdoor activities. He had a flare for bicycling, running, football, skiing, and sledding with an extra helping of fearlessness. "Meaning both were up for any challenge". They, of course, would run into each other from time to time. Whenever that opportunity arose they enjoyed talking and in general just catching up. After high school Francine's adventurous spirit led her to travel to Tucson and Phoenix to explore new career opportunities. Settling on a career in Commercial Real Estate. Joe's adventures led him to various Arizona cities as well. Working in a variety of different occupations. Finally, finding his passion in IT. Despite the physical distance, they always remained connected, supporting each other's pursuits and sharing stories of their adventures. Years passed and life led them down different paths. One day their paths crossed again, Francine moved back to Flagstaff where Joe had been living for some time. As they reconnected, they realized their love and friendship had stood the test of time. Pretty sure the universe had conspired to bring them back together, and they knew it was meant to be. With joyful hearts and tears of happiness, Francine and Joe decided to embark on a new chapter of their lives together. They made a promise to each other to Love, Cherish and Support one another, just as they had as children. We look forward to celebrating this incredible journey with our Friends and Family. As we prepare to take our vows and become life partners. We have known each other a lifetime, and have only beautiful memories, endless laughter, and unwavering Love for one another. We are looking forward to a lifetime of happiness together. We are honored to have each and every one of our Friends and Family be part of our special day. Love Francine and Joe
