Lance worked at the Sears counter in high school, where Alia and her mom would often stop by going into the mall. Lance would often chat with Alia and her mom while they shopped and asked him to take down Christmas trees. Years later, the store shut down and they didn’t see each other again. Lance ran into Alia’s mom at the grocery store when she suggested that he find her daughter on Facebook. Alia and Lance finally met to go for a walk in fall of 2019 and the rest is history! Thanks Mom!
