Renee & Jacob met the summer before 9th grade. They were 14 years old at a leadership camp in Central Oregon and hit things off right away. They talked off and on for the next two years, and started seriously dating at 16. This started a tradition of one of them driving the 240 miles between houses every other weekend for the following 2.5 years. In that time they went to Duck games at Autzen and took trips to Seattle. Renee’s mother housed Jacob and his friends over many winter and spring breaks. Jacob’s Nana Amber even took the Leturno family to vacation in Washington over one Thanksgiving to finally meet Renee. Renee moved to Oregon the summer after they graduated. She moved in with Jacobs father AJ & his step mother Tiffany. Shortly after Renee and Jacob moved into one of the houses on the Coburg Rd property, next to Nana, AJ, and Tiffany. And then the other house on the property. They adopted a cat named Banana, a bearded dragon named Shredder, and dogs named Lyla, Lowkey, & Waylon. Renee and Jacob spend their time at the dunes, working on cars, and hiking the PNW. Jacob finally proposed at Eugene Electric Station in October of 2018 in the 6 course at dinner. They were both in Blue. Renee immediately said yes and they both cried over dessert. The next chapter of life is being written!
