i knew it!!
they met in Central Park? did he just walk up to her or something. what a cool story.
I’ve worked near central park but not a big park person so i rarely entered it.
He was there visiting the Park with a shipmate and they ran into my mother and her friend. From what I was told, they actually began dating the other way around at first: my father with my mother’s friend, etc. Then at some point later they switched! Lucky for me they did, or there wouldn’t even be a “me”.
