Anthony and I met when we began working together at Concord Pet when he was transferred to the location I was at in August 2014, funny thing was we both had been working for the small company for several years before ever crossing paths. Within a few weeks we became friends and I always looked forward to the shifts we had scheduled together. We became “official” in April 2015 when he asked me to be his girlfriend on April Fools Day while on vacation together in Florida. (I know, a little unconventional). We knew for months beforehand that we wanted to be together so when he finally asked me on April Fools I had to make sure he wasn’t joking! We live for country concerts, Flyers games, days out on the boat bass fishing, and of course time spent with our rescue puppy Kroy. I knew he was the one within three months of dating when my mom suffered multiple ruptured brain aneurysms and Anthony was beside me and my family’s side every single day in her hospital room. We have been through some of the hardest trials that life could throw at us: cancer, surgeries, death, but no matter what, we always had each other. On July 1st, 2018 Anthony and I were at a country concert on the Atlantic City beach during one of the hottest days of summer with a few close friends. He got down on one knee right as the concert was starting and asked me to be his wife. We bought our first home together in September 2018 in Middletown, DE and are more excited than ever to become Mr. and Mrs. Pistoria!
