We met in French class at Sussex Central High School. Lionel was one of the football guys who thought because they played football they didn’t have to do class work and was too cool for school lol. Lionel sat behind me or beside me every time we went to French. He made me laugh, he complimented me, and cheated off my work lol. Then my grandfather passed away and I received a phone call from him. He noticed I had missed school and just wanted to check on me. From that one phone call, we stayed on the phone ALL night every night and now we are here 16 years later. We married August 22, 2009, in Lionel’s parents front yard. All we knew is that we loved each other and wanted to be together no matter what. Fast forward to 2019, we are celebrating 10 years of marriage. During our marriage we have overcame obstacles, death, and had some major milestones! We have been blessed with Leah A. Hyman (10 years old) and Deshawn J. Hyman (Dj- 6 years old). Life isn’t perfect but together we have made the best of it!!
