Evan Dekker ’11 and Karen Patterson ’11

Evan Dekker ’11 and Karen Patterson ’11 were married on Oct. 30, 2016 in Littleton, Colorado. They report that every person (officiant, scripture reader, wedding party, etc) involved in the wedding is a graduate of Hope. They note that they didn’t necessarily do that on purpose, but believe that it speaks to the power of Hope and the sort of relationships the college nurtures that five-plus years after graduating their closest friends are still those from college.
