How
we met:
Jeremy
and Dana met during college at Georgia Tech, where they both rowed
competitively for the Georgia Tech Crew team. They started
dating after becoming best friends. After graduating from Tech, Jeremy
took a job working for Motorola in West Palm Beach and Dana
"landed" a dream job of working on NASA's space shuttle. Jeremy has
recently moved up to Cape Canaveral, near Dana, to work at DRS Tactical
Systems designing military computers. They have built a new beach town home
in Cape Canaveral, which is currently Jeremy's short-lived bachelor
pad.
On
New Years Day (1/1/03) Jeremy and Dana went for a long walk on Cape
Canaveral beach, just before sunset. After about an hour of walking,
Jeremy jumped onto one knee and popped the question.....and of course,
Dana immediately accepted.
