We were set up by mutual friends who thought we’d be a good couple. I asked her out to dinner and she accepted. On the way to the restaurant my fire pager went off for a call so I asked her if she would mind if I went to the call. She was an ambulance volunteer and said she understood so I left her in the car in the parking lot and went to the call.
When I came back, she was still waiting for me. I knew then that she was the one. That was almost 30 years ago and she still is.
