Mark, already an alumni of Fairfield (graduated 1995), was subbing for our usual pianist at the Egan Chapel while I sang with the liturgical music group my sophomore year at Fairfield (December 2000). Two years later we went out on our first date in March of 2002... we had already cultivated a beautiful friendship and that blossomed into something more. Mark continues to play piano at the Chapel every Sunday for the Community mass and I attend (and sing) when I can with our two little kids! Fairfield brought us together although we did not attend the same years. Fairfield, for us, means family. The Chapel was where we met, it was part of our engagement story, where we married, and where our children were baptized. It feels like a second home to us!
