Meet Russell Charette & Deanne Lavallee - Russ & Deanne have a unique story in that they were friends when their kids were little and coached each others' kids in sports as they grew up. It wasn’t until they each lost their spouse to cancer and cancer complications that they reconnected. Their story is a unique one of love, laughter, and family.
May their story demonstrate how life has many different chapters. It doesn’t have to be dark and depressing once you lose the love of your life. They are always with you. Life is meant to be shared and why not create beautiful memories with those that are still here on earth?
Thank you to Russ & Deanne for being so open and honest in talking about your past and present and sharing stories of your first loves. May the future continue to bring love, laughter, and light to your home.
Thanks for tuning in and we'll see you next week!
