HEY,
We're
David and Laurel!
To be honest, there were times it felt like we couldn't endure one more day of the distance between us, let alone another decade!
All the woes in our vows that we promised to live through together have occured. Yet we're still standing, and we're better friends and lovers than ever.
We've been married more than 33 years (and have over 286 years of marriage among our parents and siblings!). David has, for two decades+, been a minister among scholars and professionals from all over the world, and Laurel is a psychiatric mental health nurse practioner, former college professor, and ethnomusicologist.
There is no perfect marriage, but we love ours the best.
We're committed to seeing the peace and joy that permeates our lives become part of your story, too!
