I like to say that our story reaffirms my faith in the Lord because the chances of us crossing paths don't seem likely if it wasn't for him. I had graduated college and decided to move out to North Carolina to start my career as a nurse at Duke University Hospital in Durham. Any member of my family will tell you that the first six months of living out here by myself were "rough" to put it nicely. I was one more bad week away from moving back to the Midwest but decided to keep the faith. I met Jack two months later. Jack was on the fast track to law school after graduating from Indiana University when he detoured and decided to join the Army. After basic training he landed at Fort Bragg in Fayetteville, NC. Like any modern love story, we met on a dating app. As soon as the conversation began with identical sarcasm and humor, the rest was history.
