#JSULove: "Over 30 years ago, Kevin and I met on the Plaza at Thee Jackson State University. I was a communicative disorder (speech-language pathology) major and Kevin was a criminal justice major. I am a native of Natchez, Mississippi and Kevin is a native of Jackson, Mississippi. Our paths may not have crossed but thanks to JSU and the matchmaking of three close friends (Karen Cooke, Ray Davis and Nat Younger), we met. 

Shortly after meeting, Kevin and I knew we wanted to be together. I remember our long conversations when he would call me on the hall phone in Alexander. Yes, the communal hall phone! Later, Kevin and I established a weekly date night. I looked forward to him picking me up every Tuesday to go to dinner or just for a ride. We have managed to keep our date nights going after many years of being together.

After we graduated from JSU, Kevin asked me to go for a reminiscent walk with him on the JSU Plaza. All along, he planned to take me to the very place we met and propose. I said, 'Yes' and we have been inseparable! In fact, “Inseparable” by Natalie Cole is one of our favorite songs. I surprised Kevin by singing “Inseparable” to him during our wedding ceremony.

Fast forward, nestled in Jackson, Mississippi, Kevin and I have been married for 28 years. We are the proud parents of three children, Kelsi, Kelli and Kevin. Kelsi, a 2018 graduate of JSU (communicative disorders) works as a speech therapist while enrolled in graduate school at Mississippi College. Kelli, a 2020 graduate of Millsaps College attends law school at Mississippi College. Our son, Kevin, a 2021 high school graduate, served as a ball boy for the JSU football team from third grade to his senior year. He attends JSU and is a marketing major with a minor in business. We are absolutely overjoyed that our son is a running back on the historic JSU football team!

Among many things, we are most thankful for the quality education we received at Thee Jackson State University and certainly, our everlasting love for one another."
