Sylvia (a teacher from Michigan) and JD (Ohio engineer) first met in 1983 while watching the Michigan-Ohio State football game and have been together ever since. Devoted hikers, bikers and skiers, several years ago they built their dream-house near Aspen, Colorado. This video of JD and his 59 hats, shot in February 2009, captures their life and adventures together. JD passed away on July 23rd, 2009 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.
