Alumni Couples

 

 

 

 

March 2007
Matthew '07 and Amanda Figueroa Anthony '10
"We met at Destination:Service and once we came back we took two long walks around the baseball and soccer fields where we really got to know each other. It took me seven years after our first date at Wildfire in Georgetown to ask her to marry me, but now we have been husband and wife for almost two years now."
September 1989
Jon Porter '93 and Nisa Sharma '92
"It all started at Reggae Fedt with Michael Smith and the Killer Bees. We had already met, but that night, we talked on the veranda until the band started packing to go, then we talked for four more hours. After that moment, it was forever."
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."
