Donna Kenney and Chris Eggen met in a Chemistry class at the University of Washington in the Fall of 1965. Their “chemistry” clicked and they married in June of 1967.
Chris joined the Air Force and they briefly lived in Maine and New Jersey.
In 1973, they moved to Shoreline, where they have lived ever since. Here they raised their two children, Brian and Kristy, who still live nearby.
