Tara was a Jersey Girl swimmer and marching band member.  Matt was an Eagle Scout from Pennsylvania.  They met on the first day of college orientation at Villanova University.  Distracted by rowing on the Schuylkill and each other they just about made it through freshmen year and became best friends.  Years later they married at Villanova's Chapel and still live in the Philadelphia area.

Matthew came during a hurricane.  Jack was named after his great grandfather John Duncan. With two brothers to entertain her, Jillian is the luckiest. Most nights the brothers talk themselves to sleep.  Jillian encourages everyone.
