We met while serving/working with Mercy Ships and we later married on November 5th, 2006 not to far from the Mercy Ships International Operations Center in East Texas.
Mercy Ships is a global charity, that has operated hospital ships in developing nations since 1978. Following the example of Jesus, Mercy Ships brings hope and healing to the forgotten poor, mobilizing people and resources worldwide, and serving all people without regard for race, gender or religion.
Tyrone was working as a Chef/Galley Manager in the galley (kitchen). Stephanie was working as a Registered Nurse.
In January 2009 we completed our commitment working in West Africa as volunteer staff/crew with Mercy Ships aboard the world’s largest Charity (non-government) hospital ship, the Africa Mercy. Sad to leave, but excited to move ahead, we left to pursue new goals in our married life.
Nowadays we are residing/integrating in Northern California. Stephanie is working as a Registered Nurse and enjoying catching up with old friends. Tyrone has gone back to working in the Beverage Industry and transforming his new kitchen into a ‘food lab’. We still love to pursue short term mission and charity work in our spare time and are visiting/attending a church we really like.
Our newest addition to the family, Tytus Nathaniel, was born March 2, 2010!
Life is good! God is great! Bon Appetit!
