We have known each other since middle school and then became close friends when we both went to South Plantation High School. In 10th grade we thought it would be fun to go to the St. David's Catholic Church carnival with a group of friends on March 17, 2018 (St. Patty's Day). Well the luck of the Irish was on our side, as we left the carnival as a couple and continued dating for the next 5+ years. Fast forward to November, 2022. Savannah is in college at UCF in Orlando & Robert is in the United States Coast Guard and stationed in Warrenton, OR. He asked Savannah to come to Oregon to spend Thanksgiving with him before he goes underway (off to sea for a approximately 3 months). She agreed to go, not knowing there was another special reason for the trip. :) Robert had it all planned out and had already gotten blessings from both sets of parents. On November 23, 2022 Robert took Savannah to see the lighthouse on the Oregon Coast. There he had preplanned for a few of his shipmates to be on standby for the big moment when he popped the question. It was an unforgettable moment!
