Don & Maria 's Blurbs |
About me:
We have lived in Champaign, Illinois since 1993. Don is from New Albany, Indiana and grew up in Urbana, Illinois. Maria is from Bear Lake, Michigan. We met and married in Bremerhaven, Germany. We are both Army veterans. We have two great dogs and several cats. Things are coming full circle and back to the beginning for us, and recent circumstances have given us the gift of reconnecting with each other, and remembering why we are together. We love each other, and that is enough.

A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one's heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.
