He lived at Rigby Hall with the Maveriks!
Canuck, as he is known, played hockey and invited me to one of his games in Idaho Falls, Idaho. On the way to the game we passed a Maverik Country Store, and Canuck told me about the name of his buddies. Ironically I am a Maverik too. I grew up in Afton, Wyoming the home of Maverik Country Stores and I was nicknamed the Mav-Chick from then on.
Canuck and I hung out a few times as friends and had a lot of fun. When I came back to Rick's for the second year I never heard from Canuck. One of the Maverik's lived next door and I did talk to Canuck when he was visiting him. It wasn't until I was at USU in Logan, Utah that I recieved a letter from him. From then on we wrote back and forth to each other and talked on the phone. Then Jared came to visit me in Utah during Thanksgiving of 1997 and we hit it off.
For New Years I visited him in Vancouver, British Columbia. I met his family in Edmonton, Alberta and that's where he asked me to marry him at the Alberta Legislative building!
