Richard and Myrna met during a local dance event. Myrna was handed a flyer, placed it on the table, and stepped away to go speak to a friend. Upon returning, someone had taken her flyer. So, she stopped Richard a requested another one. With a glare look given to Myrna, Richard responded “YOU NEED TO BE THERE.”
Myrna was a bit reluctant to go to the event, but she pressed her way through.
Richard greeted Myrna and thanked her for coming. After further conversation, they exchanged numbers.
Later that evening, Richard asked Myrna to dance. It was seemingly to be more personal because they had locked eyes and shared a close dance.
At the end of the evening, Richard walked Myrna safely to her car. He thanked her for keeping her word and coming out to his event. This was the night that the journey began with a loving destination.
Rich told me that he knew from day one that I would be his wife. He would always tell me, “Oh! I’m not confused about this at all. I already know the assignment.”
October 14, 2023, Rich proposed at my mother’s 70th birthday party! It was an awesome party with a 70’s theme. Rich was the dj.
We were surrounded by family and friends. So, of course I said, “Yes” 😜
