Patrina & Russell
Friday, November 4, 2011
Welcome and congratulations to Patrina and Russell, and an extended congratulations to their respective families; Pauline and Delroy Murdock; and Gail Battle. Patrina, an administrative assistant and student, and Russell, an IT network specialist, were engaged on November 4, 2011 at Russel's house.
'It seemed like a regular Friday night. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. After dinner Russell said he had something for Patrina, left the room and returned with a sheet of paper. He read the sweetest poem he'd written himself. The last line of the poem was '... So will you marry me?'. Patrina didn't even see the ring as she tackled him while he was still down on one knee. She was completely shocked as she didn't see it coming but of course, after asking several times 'Are you serious???', she said 'Yes!''
The happy couple is looking forward to their August 4, 2012 celebration of love in Brooklyn, NY.
