While Jill was attending school at the Antonelli Institute in Chestnut Hill, she was looking for a part-time job in between class. She heard about a gourmet market called Jonathan’s Best that was known for their amazing guacamole and figured what better place to go to work than that? What she didn’t realize was this job would lead to much more than free guac. The day she applied to work at Jonathan’s she met Pat for the first time and he left a lasting impression on Jill. As they began a co-worker relationship, they became great friends. Pat was always extremely sweet to Jill and paid a lot of attention in getting to know her. As soon as her most recent relationship ended, Pat took his chance to jump in and ask her on their first date! They took things slow and officially began their journey as boyfriend and girlfriend that following winter of 2012. Over the next few years they formed their relationship around love, family and friends, Phish concerts, exploring their passion for craft food and drinks, and most recently becoming the proud parents to their adorable new puppy, Millie. Although Pat knew for many years that Jill was “the one”, after 7 years of dating he decided to surprise Jill on a wintery night by getting down on one knee and asking her if she will marry him. Thankfully she said YES and now you all have a kick ass party to attend!
