How We Met
The summer of 2004, Jan received a phone call from the Director of Human Resources at Seattle's Union Gospel Mission. The assignment? Serve as the consultant in a multi-year initiative to help the mission create a culture of exceptional service. Six months into the project, John called Jan for what she thought was a business dinner. John thought it was a date. Of course, the flowers gave it away. However, John agreed not to date until the contract was completed. He would ultimately end up waiting for six months longer than the 2 1/2 years remaining on the contract. On February 19, 2008, the contract was fulfilled. That night, they had their first date!
