Karen

My sister Karen is the creative one in the family when it comes to the kitchen. She has worked in many restaurants with her most recent position that of Pastry Chef. She enjoys a good glass of wine, gardening, museums, spending time with her niece, Stella, and is a big animal lover.

Tricia

Tricia is six years younger than me, the youngest in the family. She will answer to Patricia, Tricia, Trisha or Patty (definitely
not Pat though). Tricia is married to Paul (they went to high school together, though they met 12 years after graduation) and they have a beatiful 10 month old baby girl, Stella. She enjoys cooking, a good glass of wine and being with her family and friends.

Ruth

My mother comes from "The Rock", also known as NewFoundland, Canada. She has been known to travel to NewFoundland to visit her childhood friends and fellow nursing school mates. She enjoys a good glass of wine, quilting, gardening, and spending time with her family and new grandaughter Stella.

Marissa Smith

Marissa is Rich’s niece and we are both very happy to have her in our wedding. Marissa recently earned her black belt in karate, which is a great accomplishment for her since it took a lot of time and effort to do this. She is also an excellent student with near perfect attendance. She loves American Girl Dolls and her favorite color is purple. Since I have known Rich, it has been great to see her grow into the person that she is and I look forward to only great things for her in her future.

On the groom's side, Richard's best man will be Jeff Roberts, one of his closests friends. His brother, Chuck Smith, will also be a groomsman. In addition, Richard's nephew, Carson Smith, will be serving as a junior groomsman.

	Jeff Roberts I've known Jeff for over 22 years, ever since we were both Juniors at North Middlesex High School in '83. In the years since, we have gone to Europe together and he has moved me 5 times! I consider Jeff to be my mover, carpenter, and most of all, best friend. Jeff is a person who will help you out any way he can, and as a small repayment for all he's given me (and us) over the years, we were happy Jeff agreed to be my "Best Man."
	Chuck Smith My brother Chuck has always been there for me (he's saved my life 3 times), and will help out in any situation. Chuck has helped me out in ways he isn't even aware of, and I've become a better person by looking at life the way he does. I'm not saying I compete with him, but let's just say he makes me try harder. And, he has a wonderful family - something I want for Shauna and I. His success makes me strive for my goals (goal #1 - kick Chuck's ass at golf!).
	Carson Smith What can you say about my youngest nephew? He is smart, athletic, and has a great soul. I have had the wonderful opportunity to watch Carson grow up into the person he is now. Shauna and I look forward to Carson being in the wedding and performing his wonderful duties.
