“Gary & Patricia Kornegay – Rancho Cucamonga, California Married 32 years – Anniversary: April 19, 1986”
“Our marriage would not be what it is today if we let other people in.” — Gary”
“Maintaining a successful marriage is very important to both Gary and Patricia. Patricia says, “I want to set a great example for our kids. I want my daughter to marry someone like her dad. Our business helps also. We’re in a couple-driven business. We counsel a lot of the other couples. We see couples struggle when one comes from a woman-dominated family, and the other comes from a married family background. You’re taking two completely different backgrounds, and attempt to merge them to try to create something that works for the two of them. These experiences in counseling help me to continue to be a good example of a partner and wife, doing things that enhance my husband’s reputation, instead of tearing it down.”
