We both had been alone for some time. Knowing there are options to finding our forever partner, each of us decided to let social media help us in this adventure. Going in this direction turned out to be the best decision of our lives. In July, we connected and realize we wanted to take the next step. This was a little tricky since Joe lived in Gallatin and Maureen was in Franklin, totally opposite sides of Nashville and an hour apart. We had our first meet and greet in August at a restaurant in Franklin. From then on we planned a date that the other had never done. In doing this, we discovered that we had many shared life experiences such as; love for families, much joy in laughter and the excitement of travel. This journey is only the beginning of our union as husband and wife. We continue to look forward to what our families, friends and most importantly God has in store for us.
