We met at a work , Garfield High School. I was a teacher & Tony became a security guard after retirement as a Detective for the Passaic Police. We met in the halls & our friends would joke that we probably would hit it off based on our interactions. One conversation after another lead us to many great memories , making us realize we were meant to be together .

Tony & I were heading out with our horses for a nice ride in Wickenburg. He kept saying to me that Mason ( our black quarter horse ) had something stuck in his hoof and I kept saying leave Mason alone! Finally , I agree to get off and check Mason . Little did I know he was trying to get me off him to propose & our photographer friend Kelsea was hiding nearby . I spotted her and then turned around to see Tony on one knee . We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. We are planning to get married in Europe .
