Richard and Christina Ellis

The exciting news for Christina this past year was her marriage to Richard Ellis on June 30 in the Mesa Temple. When they met, Richard had just returned from a tour of duty in Iraq. Currently, Richard is a Senior Airman at Luke Air Force Base, but he is looking for a permanent position with a city fire department when his enlistment finishes in October. At the same time he is finishing a degree in Para medicine. He makes his family proud as a fourth generation fire fighter. Christina loves being married and getting to know her new family. She continues to work for her brother-in-law in the mortgage industry. Both Christina and Richard enjoy playing with their chocolate lab, Megan. They have been co-teaching the Sunbeams in their ward, but a recent move will mean new callings.
