Tara Payne '08 & Anthony Payne '06

Featured photo for Tara Payne Anthony transferred to CLU in 2004 after touring the school with his younger brother. We’re forever indebted to great tour guides and a beautiful campus! We met briefly in the fall of 2005 at an off campus party when Tara showed up to pick up some friends. We realized we were neighbors in Grace Hall and after that introduction seemed to run into each other all the time. When we were not writing messages on each other’s bulletin boards we were sending them on MySpace. A few late night library study sessions and a midnight donut run and the rest is, as they, history. We were married in 2010 and had our first daughter Ramona in 2013. Our second, Valerie, made her grand entrance in 2016. We praise God everyday for the many blessings in our lives and are forever grateful for the time we shared at CLU.
