Rachel and Bill met during the height of the Covid pandemic, building their relationship through texts and phone calls. With traditional date spots closed, they got creative, meeting outdoors at the Manassas Battlefield and organizing home workouts and mental challenges to stay connected.
As restrictions eased, they had their first official date, but their demanding schedules kept them from spending every moment together. Rachel worked 12-hour shifts while attending school, and Bill was busy coaching baseball. Despite this, they cherished their limited time together, building a foundation of mutual respect and partnership. Their bond grew stronger as they met each other's families and friends, and they introduced each other to new experiences. Over time, their love, respect, and communication turned their early efforts into a lasting relationship.
