when my husband and i left our little city life to move to Rumford 5 years ago, we were basically starting over from scratch. we had no immediate or distant family in the area, we had no friends…not even acquaintances. to say the least, it was isolating. however, over the last couple years we have melted into our small, mountain town life as if we have always lived here, and our newly found friends have molded into more of a family than we ever expected. whether it was simply just hanging out for fun, or help with the girls, or moving {you really find out who your friends and family are when you move}, or helping us paint, scrape, babysit, our close friends have sincerely made our life here a genuine home. brian is definitely a huge part of our family life and day to day existence…Mike works with him every day and our girls simply adore him. and when melissa came into the picture a few months ago, she too was instantly welcomed and loved as a very wonderful addition to Brian’s life…and in turn our family.
to: brian and melissa.
