She is in her 80's and lives in her home in Flandreau. His Dad, Bruce, lives in Madison. His mom, Lil (Lillette), lives and works in Brookings.
Julie's parents Larry and Sue Jans are both in their early 50's. They live on a farm in Clarkfield, MN. Her dad is a farmer and her mom is a 1st grade teacher. Julie also has two younger siblings. Her brother Michael (27) is married to Amanda. He is a farmer/racecar driver with their dad and Amanda is an accountant. Karen (25), her sister, is currently working in a clinkic taking patient insurance information in Morhead, MN. She is close to being engaged.
2. Where did you grow up?
Jim grew up in Flandreau with his grandparents G.R. and Ida Millman.
Julie grew up on the family farm near Clarkfield.
3. How did you meet? How many years have you been married?
We met at SDSU. Julie worked at the front desk in Waneta Complex. Jim's good friend liked Julie. One day he noticed Julie was working so told Jim that the girl he liked was working. Jim came to the desk to "check his mail" before going to practice his baritone. He was wearing a shirt from Campus Crusade for Christ, which Julie recognized, so she asked him if he had gone on that trip...we ended up talking for over an hour. We actually both lived in that same complex the year before and were also both regular attenders of Campus Crusade, so although we are pretty sure we met before this, we don't remember eachother. We have been married over 7 years.
4.Tell us aout your jobs.
Jim has been working at Citibank for over a year and was recently the first person ever selected to be TSP without being a mentor first...you'll have to have him explain it better!!
Julie has been working at StarMark for over 5 years and is the Lead Designer. She designs kitchens mostly for Direct Buy members across the United States.
5. What is your faavorite thing about Dell Rapids?
This church. The majority of our friends in Dells come from this church...and to think, we came to the Reformed church because Dave Schuch told us how great it was one night during our bowling league (Jim and Julie were on the same league, different teams....Jim was on Dave's team)!
