Whatever day you choose to pop the question however is the perfect day to initiate your happily ever after. This issues couple celebrated their 1-year wedding anniversary on July 3rd. Cheers Guys!
Anniversaries:
Mario Henderson-Williams and Eldra Williams-Henderson were married on July 3, 2021. Mario is a supervisor for a hospital system and Eldra works for an Insurance Company. They also work for their auntie/mom’s funeral home, Strowder’s Funeral Chapel in Cleveland, Ohio which has been around for 70 years. Mario and Eldra also have their own printing company as well. The two settled down in Euclid, Ohio where they purchased their first home in September of 2019. Thus far, they have been together for a total of 7 years.
The couple initially met in 2015 on Facebook with Eldra sending Mario a friend request from seeing him in a Facebook group called His Beard and Glory. But Mario didn’t know Eldra was located in Cleveland until he made a post one night saying: “What is it to do in Cleveland?” Eldra replied, “Nothing!” And Mario was like – OMG, he stays here! They then connected through conversation over time and decided to go on a date a few months later. They’ve been inseparable ever since!
