Dearbhla (nee O'Flynn) and I met on March 17th, 1995 at a St. Patrick's Day party hosted by yours truly in Montgomery, Alabama where I was stationed with the U.S. Air Force. We both knew that something WONDERFUL occurred on that night. Less than one year after searching deep within each other's eyes for the first time, we were married in a Montgomery, Alabama Courthouse on March 8th, 1996. Slightly more than one year after that, on April 12th, 1997; we were married at St. John's Church in Dearbhla's hometown: Sligo, Ireland. We moved to Naples, Italy in October, 1996 and have lived here since. We will depart Italy in August, 1999 after completing our last tour with the Air Force; and happily move to Ireland. We are excited about the changes and opportunities that lay ahead!
OF ALL THE BEAUTY
Of all the beauty I have seen,
She alone endures
The wrath of time and weather
Upon dear Eire's shores.
The Rose-bud withers with the wind,
The pansy with the sun;
Her beauty lasts forever,
'Til time and time are done.
WHO ARE THEY?
