Ithaca College Senior Formal |
Doug and Lindsey met December 24, 1996 in Sacred Heart Church at a Christmas Eve mass. As it turns out, both Doug and Lindsey's parents had known each other for years, although the two kids had never met until that moment. It wasn't long before they were speaking regularly on the phone; Doug had already graduated college and was home working with his dad in the plumbing and heating company they jointly owned. Lindsey, however, still had one more semester left at college and had no idea what her future plans were or where she'd go after graduation ...until they met.

The two continued living near one other, each with their parents, and living and experiencing "the real world." Lindsey took her first job at a preschool for three years and loved every minute of it. Doug branched off from the family business and began working for IBM in utilities operation.

It was during this time that Doug bought a condo and moved to a nearby town, but not any further from Lindsey. Rocky was born July 11, 1997, and life continued on. Until April, 1999.
