Back in 2013, Rachael was bartending with Frank's sister at the Chieftan. Bitsy was convinced Rachael would be perfect for Frank and arranged a meeting during Cubs vs. White Sox Crosstown Classic. Things did not go as expected, and Rachael left convinced they were NOT a match. Fast forward to 2016— His sister had not given up her mission to get them together. One fateful night back at the Chieftan, she finally got her wish and the pair decided to go on an official date. Needless to say, they should have listened to her all those years ago. One date turned into two, which evolved to adventures in Wisconsin, New York, Utah, and California. Three years later, they undertook their biggest adventure yet—picking up and moving cross country to Arizona. Through the all the trials that 2020 brought, it became more obvious than ever they wanted to face the rest of this crazy life, together. Frank proposed to Rachael on 7/14/2020 under the orange tree in the backyard of their new home, securing the start to forever.
