There she was. At his family dinner. Sitting in his chair. Eye's wide, he asked his mom, "Who's that?" "That's Trina," she replied. "Well, I need to sit by her." Their second sighting was at a small country store. She was buying produce. He was manning the register. He gave her a 10% discount. Six months later, they were snowed in at the hospital supporting a mutual friend. From that day on, they began to build a friendship. From yoga classes, to country swing dancing and processing through their own journeys of grief, they soon learned that what they shared was more than a friendship. On January 27, 2018 they decided to call their relationship what it was, and made it "official."

He asked her. She said YES!
