Tracy and I are both from large families. Hopefully you can meet many of them at the wedding or reception.

Tracy is a court reporter in Dakota County. She is close to her family and a large circle of friends. She is a world traveler, a gardener, a golfer, a biker, a swimmer and the proud owner of Baxter.

I am a retired attorney who started practicing the same year Tracy started court reporting. I am widowed and have two sons, two daughters-in-law and six grandchildren. As a result, I watch a lot of school sports. I have recently taken up or renewed my interest in world traveling, gardening, golfing, biking and dog walking.

We met in December 2023, having been introduced by Lois Schwelling, a close friend of ours, as well as my sister-in-law. We owe Lois a debt of gratitude for her astute matchmaking and support. We clicked from our first phone conversation, sharing many interests and values. The past year has been an extraordinary experience for both of us. We are "over the moon" excited for a future together as a married couple.
