Joe: Boydler has been one of my closest friends since Jr. High. He seems to be a whole lot of people’s very close friend, and so I’m honored that he’s joining us at the ceremony. Living with him for a few months in Florida was a memorable time, and he’s always ready for a good time, or, if you’re up for it, to quiz you on the names of all the counties in Iowa...in alphabetical order...

Kate: I’ve known Kevin since Kindergarten. He’s been such a great friend to me. He was very close to being a bridesmaid – Joe convinced me otherwise. I have so many fun memories with Kevin – and maybe some not so fun ones from when we were roommates at the young age of 18. He introduced me to ‘the dishes’, and I introduced him to the wonderful TV channel of TLC. Kevin is a hilarious, thoughtful friend and ALMOST always a great time.
