Fall 1969
Mike and Helen Andes Florence, both '70
"We met in the fall of our senior year playing touch football on the science hall lawn. We graduated and both became high school teachers. In June, 1976 we were married, and this year 2019 we will celebrate our 43rd anniversary."
August 2011
Gus '14 and Hillary Richard Crimm '15
"Gus sat in front of me in a history class. Gus would wear a baseball cap to class every day and would accidentally leave it underneath his desk. I would grab it for him and give it back. We eventually struck up a conversation and the rest is history."
September 2007
Patrick '09 and Sarah Woolley Houston 2011
"We started out as friends in a group that celebrated “Adventure Fridays” exploring Georgetown. It wasn’t until that summer that Sarah confessed she had a crush! We started dating in 2008 and married 8 years later. Now we’re adventure partners for life, currently on a long-term bicycle tour!"
