Earlier 2022, Francis was booked to draw caricatures at a local elementary school. Apparently, he made a positive impression on the party planner who was also an administrator at Belleville High School. When it came time to book entertainment for Belleville's all-night graduation party, this same admin decided to play matchmaker and book Francis once again to draw caricatures. She thought he might hit it off with her colleague Ms. Danielle Bushaw who was chaperoning the event, so she strategically placed them in the same section. It worked. They glanced at each other - a lot. As Francis was packing up for the night, Danielle summoned the courage to ask Francis for his card. He mistakenly thought this beautiful teacher merely wanted to hire him to draw at an event. Another teacher had to intervene and informed Francis of Danielle's intentions. Smiling, he walked over to her, feeling magnificently lucky to have this team of strangers so adamant he meet this teacher everyone held in such high regard. After a few moment with her, he understood why!
