Hannah was born in Lansing, MI on Jan. 29, 1984. She then moved to Florida in 1987. After enjoying the sand, beach, Wilton Manors Elementary School and her bike rides, she moved to Charlotte, NC on July 5, 1994.

Graduation took place at E.E. Waddel High School in Charlotte, where she was in the first graduating class of that new public school. 

She has been employed at AT&T for over five years now, as Sales Support Representative. "The Golden Gate of her store!"

Jonathan and Payton met Hannah two years ago. We are glad the Lord has put this new family together!!!

P.S. Hannah and Jonathan are getting married on Main Street in the former Heritage USA/PTL Grand Hotel in Fort Mill, SC. Hannah enjoyed sharing the family's three lifetime memberships from 1985-1987 at this beautiful place, which has since been restored by MorningStar Ministries. We are forever grateful to the Lord Jesus for His redemptions!
