It was a Gospel group there, I saw him singing in this group. Couldn't stop looking at him. Something spark in me, when the program was over, I knew I had to say something before they lift. So some people was leaving, and others standing around outside. I went outside and he was outside, we exchanged words and then I said I don't mean no harm, but you're very handsome. He said than you, we continue to talk while the group loaded their equipment. Then he was leaving, I told my friend, that I had told this man he was handsome. She said which one, I pointed to the gentleman walking away. She had me to go get him, because she knew him. I had her to get his number for me, because I was getting ready to go back to Maryland. The rest is history. I have wonderful stepchildren and grandchildren.
