The Beginning of Our Love Story

A charming gentleman, we’ll call him Hank, with a penchant for witty banter crossed paths with a spirited lady with a knack for laughter, we’ll call her Raquelita. It was at work that Hank and Raquelita first met, a fleeting encounter that left a memorable mark. But like every good love story/novela, fate was ready to play its meddling hand and intervene. Just as quickly as they met, Raquelita vanished leaving Hank with memories and unanswered questions. With his future at the forefront of his mind, Hank realized he didn’t want this opportunity to slip away…worst case scenario she wasn’t available - but he had to know. With that decision made, his quest to find her began.

Where Could She Be....

Hank soon discovered that Raquelita had resigned from her position. He began scouring social media to find her, but due to her many aliases, he had no luck. His final hope was to solicit the help of her former supervisor who, with a twinkle in her eye, was happy to play cupid, but at her own pace, which only added to this love story's drama. She finally reached out to Raquelita and told her about her secret admirer. Raquelita was hesitant, but agreed to let this secret admirer have her contact information. Now armed with determination and a sprinkle of luck, Hank was ready to find Raquelita. It was on a Saturday morning when he reached out to her and left her a message. Raquelita being her natural busy self, did not rush to return the call. But on Monday evening when she did, their first phone call lasted 2 hours. They laughed the whole time and their conversations were effortless. This was the beginning of their courtship.

And Then It Happened...

Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months of courtship. Their lives began to intertwine and their bond grew stronger and stronger. After 21 months of countless conversations, lots of laughter and even some tears, Hank had seen all he needed to see and he knew in his heart that Raquelita was good for him. He asked her the question that would change their lives forever. With tears in her eyes and laughter in their souls (as usual), Raquelita said yes. They sealed their love with a kiss and are living happily and humorously ever after!

For all the days along the way
