Lane’s Uncle Chance Brunner and cousin Landon Hayes served as groomsmen. Lane’s brother, Wyatt was to also have been groomsman, but was unable to attend due to illness. Other family members from Texas that attended were grandparents Sheila and Allan Brunner; and Aunt Angie and Uncle Duke Fairchild.
Lane is an Army Specialist stationed at Fort Lewis McCord in Tacoma, Washington. The couple met in Walmart, when Lane assisted Madison to get something out of her reach off a shelf. He had spotted her jumping trying to reach the item and offered to assist her by getting the item for her. It was all history from that point on.

Out And About
Ron and Pam Knotts had a visit last week from one of Ron’s college roommates, Fred Wettling who recently moved from Tennessee to Austin.
