Aaron and his wife Jill are an integral part of our social circle and have been for quite some time! Having friends who share a similar sense of humor makes every interaction enjoyable.

Deronda and Jim Harris (In Memorial)

Deronda and Jim Harris (In Memorial)

Mother of the Bride & Step Father

We will be setting up a memorial chair for our mother, Deronda Lee Harris, and late father-in-law, Jim Harris, to ensure they are still a part of the celebration, even if they can't be there in person. They both hold a significant place in our hearts, and their absence will surely be felt. Heather’s mother was the first to know of our engagement while we were visiting them.. While we may miss them dearly, it's heartwarming to know that their presence and love is shining down on us as we celebrate this joyous occasion. Their memories will undoubtedly be cherished and honored throughout the day.

Doug and Karen Drost

Groomsman

Doug and Jeremy met over 25+ years ago at the racetrack and became instant friends. It wasn't long until Doug, Karen and Jeremy became traveling companions and taking vacations together on their downtime. Doug and his wife, Karen, live in Waussau, Wisconsin and remain in contact and visit each other at least once or twice a year especially when enjoying a Green Bay football game. We are thrilled that Doug and his wife will be in attendance at the wedding and Doug will be standing up for Jeremy. He has known the entire family for so long, it is like another addition to the group.
