Fun Facts: Gene and Roz bonded over their shared love of travel and meeting new people. We see lots of exciting vacations in this couple's future!

All through his life, Gene never had any trouble making friends. A fun-loving, outgoing guy, He had always loved to chat, and he would strike up a conversation with anyone. Despite this naturally gregarious spirit, he’d been nervous to try dating again after his late wife’s passing.

When Gene told his matchmaker what he was looking for, someone who was ready to be a part of his family was at the top of his list. As a father of four daughters who’d grown up to have families of their own, he loved being in their lives, and he knew this would be important for his future partner to understand.

He had no idea that his future partner was already well into her own matchmaking journey.

Roz had met a handful of men who weren’t quite right for her. Nearing the end of her matchmaking journey, she had begun to feel discouraged. She wondered if she would ever find the relationship she wanted. She was looking for someone who was friendly and outgoing, but still laid back.

Not ready to give up, Roz’s matchmaker called her with one last introduction. Gene wasn’t like the men she’d met before. He was a kindred spirit, and Roz suspected from the beginning that something special could be on the horizon with her final matchmaking introduction.

And she was right! Roz and Gene were married in a lovely outdoor ceremony surrounded by their loved ones. They enjoy spending time with Gene’s family, and their social lives are just as packed as they want them to be. They see a promising future together, so they’re taking it one day at a time and enjoying their connection. In the end, Gene is so happy he took a chance on matchmaking, and Roz is so glad she stayed patient and open-minded all the way through her journey.
