Groomsman: Eli Johnson


This picture was taken in the Spring of 2000 at a weekend trip to Sierra at Tahoe.

Evan and I have so many memories with Eli, it's hard to know where to start!  He came to UNT for drum line and played quads with Evan.  In January of 2000 Evan, Eli, and I moved out to Northern California so they could march with the Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corp.  When they weren't rehearsing, Eli and I worked at the Old Spaghetti Factory together.  Then in 2003, Eli moved with Evan out to Lake Tahoe to join me in the mountains!  I think we'd all say this was an unforgettable Spring.  Our days were filled with snowboarding, skiing, Mount Talac beer, and the Lakeside Casino.  After Tahoe, Eli headed back to his home state of Minnesota and married his beautiful wife, Jenny.  Denton, Concord, and South Lake Tahoe will always hold special memories of Eli for us!
