At
the beginning of the 1999 year, I decided to join a few dating
services on the Internet. My goal was to find a meaningful and
long lasting relationship. At the end of March 1999, I was
contacted by the girl of my dreams. After receiving 100+
letters from all over the world, I found her. I don’t know
exactly what happened, but I knew from the start that Maria
Lorena F. Villahermosa was the one and only one for me. After
writing over 100+ letters to her, 10 phone calls, and
un-countable thoughts, I went to meet Lorena in Cebu,
Philippines. I left Saint Louis on October 27, 1999 and
arrived in Cebu on October 29, 1999.
The
trip was very long but well worth every second. When I
departed the plain, I was welcomed by Lorena and her family
and most of her relatives. A truly inspirational family that
became very good friends by the end of my trip. On November 2,
1999, Lorena and I visited a restaurant called Mr. A’s in
the foothills over Cebu. I asked Lorena to marry me and she
said "Yes". The day after I asked Lorena to marry
me, we had a huge party to celebrate our new found life
together. During the party, I also asked Lorena’s parents
for their daughter’s hand in marriage. They were very happy
to have me as a part of their family and blessed us on our
life together. I am also very proud that I was accepted into
their family circle. My friends and family have also been very
supportive and excited for us both. I feel very blessed and
eager to start on my new direction in life. I don’t think I
have ever been happier in my life. After a wonderful trip and
even a better time, I returned on November 6, 1999 and landing
is Saint Louis on November 7, 1999. I wish I would have never
have had to leave. The people in Cebu were so wonderful and
kind during my stay. I miss them all, especially Lorena.
Lorena is absolutely astonishing. She
has a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting and works for a
Senator John H. Osmeña at the Cebu Polytechnic Institute. She
also has started and operated a convenience store which she
will leave to her family. Her family could easily be
considered poorer then most here. But today, with Lorena and
her family’s efforts, they have excelled in their dealings
and have a beautiful home and store to show for their efforts.
I work for a company headquarters here
in St. Louis called Unigraphics Solutions as a software
testing engineer on computer aided design software. I have
obtained my degree in mechanical engineering from the
University of Missouri. I am also involved on the Board of
Managers at the Lindell Terrace and I donate my time to the
City of St. Louis Office of the Disabled and was proudly
appointed by the Honorable Mayor Clarence Harmon. I am
confined to a wheelchair due to a 1986 car accident which left
me paralyzed quadriplegic. This has not slowed me down in
living my life to the fullest. Lorena however, would be by far
my most treasured aspiration. I love her dearly.
Today,
we have over 125 letters of correspondence. Isn’t e-mail
great! I know that Lorena and I will have a long life together
and we can’t wait to get started in our dreams to have a
family. We are true soul mates that God has brought together
even though we live on opposite sides of his world. Therefore
we hope to have a speedy immigration process.
Please
contact me at your convenience should you need further
clarification or information. Thank you again for your time
and assistance.
Sincerely,
Michael B. von Ruecker
