Knowing David since 2020 has been an incredible and heartwarming journey. My first encounter with him was at the Dutch Bros line in Prescott Valley, where I was working at the time. Even before we exchanged words, I could sense that David was a kind-hearted individual with numerous blessings from God. His enthusiasm for starting work at Dutch Bros was infectious, and I could tell right away that he had a heart of gold.

As we began working together, David quickly became a constant presence on my shifts. I had the privilege of training him on the ins and outs of the job, from making drinks to interacting with customers, and he never failed to uphold the high standards set by Dutch Bros. Over time, our friendship blossomed, and I came to appreciate his sense of humor, his willingness to help others, and his unfailing presence for those around him.

In April of 2021, David embarked on a dirt bike ride in Moab, Utah, and little did I know that this adventure would drastically change things for him. A call informing me of his serious injury left me devastated, with my heart breaking for him and his family. I did my best to support them during their absence, caring for their home and animals until their return to Arizona. When David came back, I stood by his side during his healing process, sharing in conversations, playing video games, and offering comfort.

David's remarkable compassion for others and his ability to listen and provide support through any situation truly set him apart. After nine months of recovery, David was fully healed, and on January 15th, 2022, he asked me to be his girlfriend. Our relationship has been a source of immense joy and growth, marked by his unwavering dedication to becoming the best version of himself and his endless love for those around him. When he proposed to me on November 19th of 2023, I was overjoyed to say yes and embark on this lifelong journey with him.

David's selflessness, love, and profound empathy have been a constant blessing in my life, and I am honored to be his wife. I am beyond grateful for the incredible support we have received from our loved ones and am thrilled to celebrate our union with all of you on September 21st. Together, we look forward to a future filled with love, growth, and steadfast support for each other, no matter where life may lead us. David is truly a gift from God, and I feel incredibly blessed to be by his side as we take on whatever challenges and joys come our way.

After much wise counsel and prayer, we made the decision to marry at the local courthouse. So, on December 29th, 2024, in the company of our immediate family and closest friends, we took communion and said our vows. Following the joyous I Do's and kiss, we celebrated our union with a lovely lunch. That day marks the beginning of an amazing life as David's wife and I look forward to sharing our story and recent lessons as a newly married couple.
