Most fairytales start with once upon a time. This one starts with once upon a towboat.The towboat is the 1,200 hp., twin-screw Brooks Andrew, an Evansville Marine Service harbor vessel named after 5-year-old Brooks Andrew Newman.A few years ago, Kyle Aldrich, 33, executive vice president of Evansville Marine Service, met Brooks' mom, Meagan, 27, a social media and public relations manager for Working Distributors, the Evansville, Ind., Anheuser-Busch wholesale distributor, at a country music concert in Evansville. For him, it was nearly love at first sight. When he saw her across the room, he knew he had to meet her.For her, it took a little longer. She messaged him on Instagram a few months later, and they went out on a date.Even on that first date, the river was a part of their story. After a meal at Cafe Arazu on the riverfront in Newburgh, Ind., they went to a wine festival at the old lock and dam there.How did Meagan know Kyle was the one?"Honestly, he's probably the nicest person I've ever met," she said. "He's very trustworthy, and the way he was with my son kind of sealed the deal for me." |
