Michael and Emily
A Special Mutual Friend
Your Story
We met through a mutual friend, Elizabeth Byers. We became best friends and knew we had something special. I moved back to Pittsburgh to get my masters while Michael finished up at KSU. I would drive from Pittsburgh to Kent every weekend. When Michael graduated he moved to Pittsburgh to be with me. We bought a house together in Pittsburgh. You know it's true love when you convince a Browns fan to move to Pittsburgh.
¾«¶«Ó°ÒµProposal and Marriage
Michael proposed at our home. He was going to light candles on the porch, but it rained that day. He asked me to take a half day so we could go to lunch. When I opened the door the house was dark. He had flowers leading up from the front door to the bedroom. Our dogs helped lead the way. I opened the door and he got down on his knees. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµroom was full of flowers and "I love you " written in chocolates. I said yes of course. We got married in downtown Pittsburgh a year later. We have a four month old son, Connor William Fitzpatrick.
Staying Connected to ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ Today
We of course stay connected with keeping up with ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ sports. We can't wait to show our son KSU and take him to a homecoming parade. I was in Alpha Xi Delta sorority and stay connected with some of my sisters and Mike stays connected with a lot of his friends from KSU.
