Congratulations to the winner of our “Tell Us Your Love Story” Valentine’s Day-themed contest…. Edna Villanueva!

February 15, 2022 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

Here is her love story:

“I want to tell you about our story of more than 17 years together. Our relationship is the most important thing for us and represents a second chance at love after being in toxic relationships. It is a story of hope and self-respect.

This is how our love story began:

“They were just having coffee, except it wasn’t really coffee at all; he was staring at her and she was staring back at him and it was hearts fluttering eyes flirting and cheeks blushing it was more like souls catching fire so in between each sip of hot steaming coffee never mistake it for “just coffee’ when they were secretly burning for each other.” – N.R.Hart (The Art of Having Coffee)

We took a chance at love and after 17 years we still treat each other like newlyweds. We support each other in good and bad because when someone is down, the other is always there for support and making things better. We have built a community of love around us and now he helps me take care of my parents. We always say that we hit the lotto when we met and are eternally grateful for that first kiss. Winning this contest will help me show my husband how we all appreciate his love and invaluable importance to our families. Just to think that everything started with coffee and a kiss…we are beyond grateful!”

– Edna Villanueva

Thank you to all who voted and stay tuned for our next contest in March.
