Jordan has been one of my best friends since grade school and I don't see that ending anytime in the future. Jordan is a great friend with a big heart who cares for everyone around him deeply. Jordan is a fit guy (if you're looking for him, he's probably working out at the YMCA) and is the biggest Kansas City Chiefs fan I know. Jordan lives in Wichita, KS and works for USPS.

Ashton is another best friend I've had since we were kids. Some of the most memorable times I have with Ashton are goofing around during sporting events. His light-hearted demeanor and goofy attitude always made playing sports with him so much fun. Ashton is also the #1 prankster of all time. Nobody does pranks better. Ashton and his fiance Carolyn have a beautiful daughter, Bella. Ashton works as a sheriff for Sedgwick County.

I'd have to crunch some numbers, but I think I've known Tanner longer than any other friend. I have memories of playing against Tanner in the Goddard baseball coach-pitch league (he played for the Red Sox, I played for the Eagles). We would eventually come together and play on the same baseball team for years. We also played basketball together. Tanner and his wife, Denna, live in Wichita, KS where Tanner works as an accountant.
Groomsman
Zach is another best friend I've had since grade school, although we didn't start out as friends. My first interaction with Zach was at recess in kindergarten. I was playing goalie and Zach kicked a basketball right into my stomach. Soon after that, Zach and I became good friends. Zach loves basketball. As a sports nut myself, I love talking sports with Zach and debating opposing viewpoints anytime I can. Zach is currently living in Johnson City, TN where he works as an assistant basketball coach for the East Tennessee State University men's basketball team.
