Couple finds love at GR retirement community

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Jim Stephens and Connie Doorn’s love story may sound like many others. They met, became friends and started spending a lot of time together.

“I said, ‘I think I love you,” Doorn said.

Stephens added that it didn’t’ take him long to agree those were his feelings too. Now, they’re engaged, planning a summer wedding in Grand Rapids in the presence of their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

They are both over 85 years old and met seven years ago at Covenant Living of the Great Lakes, a retirement community off Lake Michigan Drive in Grand Rapids.
