Almost twenty-four years in the making, Jessica has returned home with the man of her dreams. We her parents were more than delighted and excited to host an open house in honor of their engagement. Plans were made for many weeks. Finally, the long-awaited day arrived. On the afternoon of Friday, June 22, we picked up Jessica and Henry at the airport. With about an hour barely to rest, the guests began to arrive at 6pm as scheduled. Three tables were carefully prepared, one for meat, one for fruit, and the other for dessert.

Congratulations to our sweet daughter and fiance!
