Steve and Lauren met when they attended Billerica High school together during Freshman year. At 14 year old, Steve told Lauren’s mom that he would marry her daughter one day. Life took them both in different directions for many years as it often does. They reconnected their friendship, quickly growing to fall in love with each other in December, 2022. Steve proposed to Lauren on opening day at Fenway Park, beside daughter Liana and son Johnny.
