We decided on Forever!

Winston and Tammy met October 26, 2019 at a Halloween party at held Hiram Lodge #5 hosted by Oriental Lodge #1 both in New Jersey. The pair was introduced by Rick Pernell who asked Tammy to take care of his brother from Connecticut. In January 2020 Winston returned to NJ for Oriental Lodge #1's Raising looking to hang out with Tammy again however she was in Atlanta with her family. The two were finally reacquainted in March 2020 on a Facebook Chat (Shot O'Clock) that was made to lighten the hit from the Quarantine. The 2 pulled away from the group every night to their own video chat which soon sparked a relationship where they started officially dating April 21, 2020. Winston and Tammy went on to have a BEAUTIFUL long distance relationship traveling back and forth from New Jersey to Connecticut and vice versa. To cope with the distance when they couldn't be together the couple would have a nightly 10pm video chat until one of them would fall asleep. Winston and Tammy bonded over their lovvvvve of music!! Especially a good GoGo set! Whether chilling at home or taking a ride there's always some good tunes blaring! Winston and Tammy are avid travelers and have been on over 25 vacations together over the past 3 and a half years. Winston is really good at keeping the destination of a vacation a secret by not telling Tammy where they're going until they literally are at the airport. Winston proposed to Tammy during private beachfront dinner in the Dominican Republic on December 6, 2022 (her birthday). Winstons love of Masonry cultivated Tammy’s decision to join the Order of the Eastern Star growing their relationship even more. Tammy has relocated to Connecticut and the two are excited to exchange vows on April 20, 2024.
