Their story began in Winter of 2021 when Bruce added Danelle on Facebook thinking she was someone else. Some would say, he slid into her DMs 😂. On the other hand, Danelle thought that she had encountered him previously through work. They were both wrong 😂. They remained friends but life found a way to bring them together. What they realized was, long before they even met online, they were attending the same church without crossing paths. But in God's perfect time, they finally met in person. The two officially became a couple in Spring 2022 and the rest was history.

In a short period of time, Bruce and Danelle have shown their devotion and commitment to one another. Danelle was living out of state at the time and Bruce would often travel to visit. They bonded over their faith, love for food, travel and medical encounters. Bruce remains Danelle’s 24/7 on-call pharmacist when she has questions about prescribing medications 😂 . Danelle admits that Bruce is not a very good patient (Bruce can be very stubborn sometimes) 😂. One of the most enjoyable moments they had was having a worship jam session in the car for hours on their second date. They knew then they had something special.

Hiking and exploring nature has always been one of their favorite hobbies. They love basking in God's creation. When not outside, Bruce and Danelle love long walks at Costco and watching a fun series on tv. They also spending time with family, both in Ohio and Illinois.

Among the many excursions they’ve gone on, the best adventure yet was when Bruce decided to get on one knee and propose. As their wedding approaches, they want to thank their family and friends for their unwavering love and support.

Above all, they want to thank God for bringing them together and blessing them with the gift of love. They are both so grateful to find each other, their soulmate, in this lifetime. None of this would have been possible without His goodness and faithfulness. To Him goes all the glory and praise!
