About this episode

For years, I longed for something I didn't fully have growing up: family. While stationed in Norfolk, Virginia, I walked to the very end of Pier 23 and made one of the most important phone calls of my life. I called Kathie's father and asked for permission to marry his daughter. When he said yes, I immediately called Kathie. And when she said yes... That moment meant everything. Sometimes a single "yes" can change the course of a life. ❤️ #HopeWithinReach #LoveStory #Marriage #Faith #Hope #NavyLife #Family #Shorts #Storytelling #Grace
