Rochetta: This past year and a half has been challenging to say the least, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Falling in love with you Maurice has been an amazing journey. Everyone deserves to experience this type of love at least once in their lifetime. The way you cross a person's path may not be when or how you expected, but following my heart with no regrets led me to you. I look forward to growing together and a longevity of love with you. We definitely wrote our own love story! Love, The Future Mrs. Dowell Maurice: You know at some point in life you give up hope and just feel like "maybe marriage is not meant for me" or "maybe I don't deserve a woman to call my wife" and then BOOM! Out of no where I crossed paths with Rochetta who makes saying goodbye to her so hard and saying hello to her such an anticipated moment! I used to pray to God to bless me with a special woman I can be happy with but I realized that I had to make myself happy before I could be blessed with a woman I could make happy. If I was able to go to a store and build a wife I would not have added any of the items that make her so special! Rochetta I tell you every single day that I love you but I never tell you why. I love you because you care about my feelings and you fill my heart with joy. Then you listen to me when I'm down and try to take my pain away and carry it as if it was your own. You have always been there and gave me a listening ear and a shoulder to lean on when I need it. You know me and understand me and care about my dreams and by keeping me on track you make me a better person. You are my safe place and for those reasons and many more are why I love you and I'm making you my wife!!!
