On that fateful Monday evening(January 21, 2003), David Higley and Marcene Langkilde happened to be attending the same singles family home evening activity. Games were the main event that evening, or so everyone else thought. But once Marcene saw that dashing young man by the door, there had to be more! So after a game of cards, Marcene got his attention by "dropping" the deck on Dave! It was a night they both will never forget. He was captivated at first sight, and her heart was taken. However, phone numbers were not exchanged and future dates were not discussed. However, later that week Marcene was set up on a mystery blind date, and guess who was her date??? Yup, you guessed it, none other than that dashing young man named Dave. Nights and weekdays were spent in the company of each other. Not wanting to waste any time, Dave unofficially proposed after their first kiss at the park. Plans were set in motion and a wedding date was set for April 17, 2003. Thus, the Higley Town Heroes came to be or was it a family?
