Debbie & Ken
The Cast
Kep Sweeney
Officiant
Kep and I have known each other since we were six years old, when we met playing soccer in Arlington, VA. I am grateful for Kep and his wife Alyse, and that our families have grown up together. Kep and I have also owned and operated businesses together across the country, including a catering company in Arlington, restaurants in Miami and Las Vegas, a restructuring company in Las Vegas, and financial advisory services in Las Vegas and Austin. Debbie suggested that he officiate our wedding, and she is so excited that Kep accepted. I am a bit apprehensive, because we were close friends in High School. Although there is very limited photographic or video evidence, he may remember, and discuss, some of the things we did. :) (Picture includes Kep, Alyse, Debbie, and me.)
Keith Brown
Best Man
Keith and I have known each other for at least 33 years. He was on my dissertation committee at UT, so he is ultimately responsible for anything I do, and he is one of my closest friends. Keith is a gifted teacher and researcher, and I have learned so much from him. We have co-authored research articles together, he has guided my career, and we have owned a money management firm together for more than 30 years. Keith and Sheryl are part of our family. The best part about Keith, however, is his wife Sheryl. :) (Picture includes Keith, Debbie, Sheryl, and me.)
