Mike and Sandy Roos

Writer's picture: Sandy RoosSandy Roos

I knew Mike from around the neighborhood. I would hang out with my best friend, Lexi Sadula and Mike was her neighbor. They started dating in high school. I thought he was okay...kind of a bad boy. Anyway, they got in a big fight and Lexi broke up with him. He was so distraught, he joined the Air Force. But he was still pining for her, even though she made it clear that she moved on. He began to write letters to me inquiring about Lexi. As time moved on, the letters became less about her and more about me. So we started to date when he would be home on leave. He was in the Air Force the entire time I was in high school. We became engaged when I was about 17 and then we were married when I was 19. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 7 years but I got two terrific kids out of that relationship.
