Shortly after their wedding, my now fiancé, Brendan, proposed to me in Vermont and had both of our families secretly present to celebrate! It was a wonderful day that I will cherish forever. In December, my sister, Kim (Class of ’02), gave our family our biggest blessing to date by giving birth to my beautiful niece, Margaret Ann O’Connor. Maggie has filled our family with so much love. Sadly, on January 6, we said goodbye to our beloved father who died after a courageous three-year battle with cancer. Our family continues to be overwhelmed by all of the love and support for our father. Thank you to all who sent cards, messages, and donations in our father’s honor. It has meant the world to us. We miss our father every day but know his legacy lives on. With winter almost behind us, Brendan and I, along with our families, look forward to the wedding on June 27 and subsequent honeymoon in the Greek Islands and Turkey! Best wishes from all of the Fahners to everyone at VA.”

It was a great day, and I was glad to be able to share it with much of my family.”
