These snaps came with an impressive and lengthy note where he used adjectives like "Persian Cat," and "Panther," to describe his leading woman. The caption read:

"She's as tender as a Persian cat curled up on a shag rug! But, she's a panther on a limb about to pounce on a lion when you need her to be!"

He extended a heart of gratitude to God and his partner for making their marriage a success. The bishop explained that it has not always been a smooth ride.

However, with a woman like Serita in his life, the journey was worthwhile as they weathered the storm in a formidable manner as teammates.

They survived a terrible accident that left Serita with serious wounds.
