We started talking online in fall of 2018, but it wasn’t like a normal online stranger story. We quickly realized we had been in several Elks meetings and events at the same time with Kelly being an officer in the Shenandoah lodge and Sean being ER in the Creston lodge. Fast forward a couple months of talking on the phone every day and we officially met in person at the fall convention of the Elks. The rest was history!! We spent the first 1.5 years of our relationship living an hour and a half away from each other but then Sean and Madelynn made the big move to Shenandoah in 2020. Through sad times and happy times, we have made it together and are so excited to start this next chapter of our lives together!
