"I think our involvement with MCC has been of great help," he said. "We both came from families that were religious and our parents were role models, showing and demonstrating respect and devotion to one another. We both have had leadership roles for several years in church and our respective professions and there has been an unwritten expectation I feel from ourselves and others that we have been somewhat of a role model, especially as concerns mixed race couples. I would say we are just very comfortable and compatible with each other in that we have a love and respect for education, the arts, music and travel."
