I met Gina in the summer of 2018, when I shook her hand as my new next-door neighbor. We each lived in an ADU that had been divided into two separate studio apartments in San Jose. After meeting, I didn’t interact with Gina again until months later when I stumbled across her profile on Bumble BFF. Thankfully, we both swiped right and started messaging through the app (while literally sharing a wall). We shared a single Wednesday Wine Night and each woke up the next morning with a hangover and a new best friend. I’ve done my whole life with Gina ever since that Wednesday night. I watched Gina date, fall in love and marry her husband, Kyle. We’ve traveled together, had children together and supported each other through the highest highs and the lowest lows of life. Gina is my family and I don’t know what I’d do without her.

Beau and Jordan met in the 3rd grade when Beau, his mom, stepdad and two troll sisters moved onto the notorious Amanda Circle. The neighborhood was never the same from that point on. They spent all of their time together, playing outside, watching cartoons and getting in trouble. From Beau throwing Jordan's skateboard into the pool, sneaking into Chris' house to scare him, to stealing tapes out of Shaun's VHS player... These two have no shortage of memories and hilarious stories. Beau and Jordan are always on the same page. Like all of the very best relationships, they balance each other out. When one of them is down, the other steps up. They've been each other's shoulder to lean on through the toughest moments of life, and have managed to only grow closer through it all. Beau isn't just a best friend. He's a brother to Jordan and Morgan and an uncle to Norah. We love you, Beau!
