Kaylene (Brown) `98 and Thomas Williams `04

My husband, Tom, had recently gotten kicked off the basketball team. (That's a story for another contest) Since he had some free time, he wandered over to audition for Malone Theatre's upcoming Shakespearean play, Much Ado About Nothing. Even though Tom had zero theatre experience, and knew even less about Shakespeare, he still nailed his audition and was cast in the lead romantic role opposite me. After practicing the stage kiss in my car in the parking lot outside Heritage Hall, I realized I would never kiss another man again. A year later, he asked me to marry him on the Malone Theatre's stage. (To which my response was "Are you sure?") We will be married 23 years this year and we have two beautiful daughters.

The picture is of Tom and me in the dressing room before the show. He was still in the "friend-zone" during that time, but I would soon change my mind on his relationship status with me.

Jennifer (Tubaugh) `94 `01 and Jason Bruce `96

 Jennifer (Tubaugh) `94 `01 and Jason Bruce  `96 While we were both originally from Ohio, we grew up on opposite sides of the state. At Malone, Steve Styer, a mutual friend, convinced Jason to call me. He was sure we were a match! I had noticed Jason across the cafeteria multiple times, so I was pretty excited to get that call! Our first date was spent hanging out in The Barn chatting the evening away. We were together from that point on! Whenever Steve saw us together, he would say, "Ahhhh my creation!" We've been married for 27 1/2 years and have a beautiful 17 year old daughter. I'm so thankful that Steve gave Jason that little nudge to get things started.
