HOW THEY MET They met on April 28, 2011 on campus at Stillman University in Tuscaloosa Alabama. "I swear from that day forward we talked almost every day. We stayed friends for a year before we actually started dating. In that time we talked about everything! I mean literally, we were best friends since April 28th, 2011. We gained a friendship that turned into something special. May 17th, 2012 he asked me to be his girlfriend." - Cor'Shawna

THE PROPOSAL: "Five years later on May 21st, 2017, during an intimate, romantic walk in the park through Aldridge Gardens, in Hoover, AL, he confessed his love for me, his aspirations for our future, and asked me for my hand in marriage. In between those five years, there has been the birth of our child, love, loss, laughter, forgiveness, new jobs, and failed investments; but one thing that was

and has always remained the same is our friendship and our faith. There are a few sayings that we continue to use and even teach our son: 'Team Together, Never Apart.' Meaning no matter how many miles, days, months we ever have to be apart we’re always together in spirit. As long as we’re trying, we can not fail! Keep God First, Always!”
