Couple to tie the knot Friday the 13th at Toledo funeral museum
For a Grand Rapids, Mich., couple, it all started at their local haunted house. When Ryan Reyher met Stephanie Briceno-Rosas at the Haunt in Grand Rapids in the summer of 2020, he was immediately smitten, he said. “I thought she was gorgeous,” Mr. Reyher said of his first impression. But it wasn’t just her looks that attracted him: “She was really caring and her aspirations were really cool.” He asked her out at the end of August, 2020, and their relationship blossomed.

The ice age-created ecosystem, which featured a mix of wetlands, forests and meadows, existed for 20,000 years until it was dredged and drained in the 19th century to create the farmland that underpinned the wealth of Ohio.

The Chrome And Neon At The Spot Restaurant In Sidney, Ohio, Haven’t Changed Since 1941
