Allison and Joe first met while working together at the commissary on the Hanscom Airforce Base in 2014. Allison just 19 years old and very shy, grew enough courage to finally strike up a conversation with Joe. After a few conversations and one date, they decided their age gap was too big and dating wasn't a good idea. Joes' friends on the other hand, convinced Joe that he would be crazy not to date Allison. Joe received the best advice of his life and convinced Allison to go out the next evening. It was on that date they both knew the attraction they had for each was worth the gamble of the age gap and falling in love was easy. Allison and Joe have been together since 2016 and have created a deep bond, an incredible friendship and a love that deserves a lifetime to live out.

Both Joe and Allison have had the blessing of coming from solid family foundations. As they build their new life together, they both understand the importance of love, respect and laughter in their home. Joe is quite the prankster and Allison is patient and loves to laugh. They bring out the best in each other and have started the making of a beautiful life together.

As they have grown in their relationship, they have come to know and love each other's families well. Joe's infectious personality and Allison's sweet genuine spirit are an unnatural pairing, and a blessing to all who know them.
