We started dating on November 1, 2020. Spencer was in college working on getting his A&P certificate to be an aircraft maintenance technician and an associates degree in applied science. Kristy was working on getting my bachelor’s of science nursing degree. We had been dating for a year and a half when Spencer asked me to marry him on a helicopter in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The way Spencer asked incorporated both of our interests and career fields. Kristy wants to be a Medflight nurse and Spencer is an aircraft mechanic. It was gorgeous flying over the Smoky Mountains. Kristy graduated from Jacksonville State University in August 2023 with a bachelor’s of science nursing degree and now works at Ascenstion St. Thomas in the ICU. Spencer works for a regional airline as an Aircraft Maintenance Crew Chief. We plan on living near Murfreesboro, TN.
