On this particular day in Poughkeepsie, New York, Jorge graduated from Marist College as a Second Lieutenant in the US Army. It was a day of celebration. Shortly after the ceremony, his family and close friends gathered at Shadows On The Hudson for a lovely dinner.

As everyone finished up their last bites, Jorge thanked each of his guests for attending his day of achievement, followed by a speech that caught many by surprise... especially his long time girlfriend, Negeen, who was brought to tears as Jorge pulled out a small, red box and got down on one knee. Negeen and Jorge, you are simply made for each other, and I am so grateful to have been a part of your special day. Congratulations to the both of you!
