Erich and his roommates hosted a standout party that became a highlight for Marymount University. Unbeknownst to Erich, this event would introduce him to someone special.
Lillian, eager for a new semester, ventured to a buzzed-about house party with friends, not realizing it would lead her to her future partner.
Greeted warmly upon early arrival, Lillian quickly connected with Erich. Their immediate rapport laid the foundation for a lasting relationship.
Two years into their relationship, Erich and Lillian welcomed Oliver into their lives, a cherished canine addition who quickly became an inseparable part of their family. Together in Arlington, they share a bond so strong that they relish every moment spent with one another.
