A Bit About Me:
I’m 22 and have been living in Ottawa for about 8 years now. I love sports, cars, animals, and my son. He is the light of my life, my perfect little angel. Now that I’ve found my fiancé the missing piece to my circle of life... the part that makes me feel whole. I graduated college in Police Foundations, and I am hoping to become a dispatcher for the Ottawa police (keep your fingers crossed for me!) at the moment i work for commissionaires, but after I get my job and a house, my life will be complete!
The Groom

Birthplace: Montreal, Quebec

Job: GM employee
A Bit About Me: I'm 22 and currently living in Vancouver BC until late April. Then back home to Ottawa where I belong. I love cars, music and of course my son Logan Zachary Murrey-Bunte. I know I am truly blessed now that I have met the two new people in my life, my beautiful Fiancée and her lil pooper, Adrien. I honestly could not ask for better. Currently I am working for a GM dealership out here in BC. But hopefully I can continue this placement once I return to Ottawa but soon go back to school to become a GM technician. Looking forward to living the rest of my life with Melissa and living the life I have always dreamed of.

Greg and I met online thru our Car clubs. He is part of his car club in BC and I am part of the Club in Ontario. Because Greg was moving out to Ottawa, he decided to sign up to the one in Ontario and give a shout out to everyone. I decided I would get in contact with I’m just to say hey and welcome him over to this end of the country, we started talking and never stopped, we discovered we had so much in common and it was really love at first sight. We dated for about four months before the big question came, and when it did there was no question in either of our minds that this was the perfect thing to do!

Greg and I would constantly talk about wanting to spend the rest of our lives together, we would talk about how and when and where we would want to get married, I started to get the feeling that he was going to propose when I went to visit him in January. I let my best friend know of my thoughts and she confronted Greg about it. With me being right, but him not wanting me to know that it was going to happen, he set her up with convincing me that I was completely out of my mind and that there was no way that this was going to happen any time soon. So I believed it, after a few days of the same story, that we needed to get other steps in our life done first, I stopped thinking about the engagement. Well, wasn’t I wrong! To see my shock when I read the note, and saw the ring; I had been had and I loved every moment of it!
It all happened with this beautiful poem...
"I have waited a lifetime,
Just to hold you in my arms.
And whisper sweet words to you, From dusk till dawn.
To enlighten you on exactly,
How a lover is suppose to be.
I will tell you, "I love you",
And give you passionate kisses,
Every day of the week.
I will show you how much,
My love for you has grown,
From all these years of being alone.
I will be by your side throughout eternity,
Because to me eternity means never ending.
Now if you will,
Make me become the happiest man alive,
And answer yes to my question.
Will you do me the honours of becoming my wife?
Because only you can complete the rest of my life!"
I melted, I cried and of course I said yes
now how it happend wasnt the way he wanted it to, he was going to give me the poem in the coffee house that we were at, but instead i got a call from a friend of mine regarding the father of my son, so i was upset about that and i was out side of the coffee house waiting for them to come out so we could go home. I was glad he decided that he wasnt going to let that sttop him, We went to the parking lot where the van was parked, i put my son in the car and got in, (my FH car was parked down the road, he had his own beucase he had jsut come across to the island) he left to get in his ar and follow us home, and my best friend Wendy got in the van and handed he a hand writen note, she told me to read it and i did (the peom above) at this point i was freaking out, i was in the van, and he had gone back to hiss car, so i drove out to where he was parked, and up one street to a smaller side street so i could pull over, i pulled over jumped out and ran over to his car... he then got down on one knee and pulled out the ring, and asked again, I said yes!
