| | | | | | The story of how two people meet and fall in love is always fascinating. Is it destiny, chemistry, or just being in the right place at the right time? For two Campolindo High School graduates, it was love and serendipity.
This fall the engagement of the two Moraga natives was the feature of Yahoo's Ultimate Surprises, an internet reality show with a positive spin.
Former Moragan and current Los Angeles firefighter, Brian Rankin, surprised his radio personality girlfriend, Heather Sheaff, with a sparkly ring in Huntington Beach amidst the blaring sirens of fire trucks and a film crew with hidden cameras.
Rankin and Sheaff's mom secretly worked with the casting director and production company for three months behind the scenes before the elaborate clandestine proposal transpired in November.
Under the ruse of a business meeting, Sheaff waited on a restaurant balcony for the supposed "client" to arrive when the waitress informed her that the fire department had been called to check an electrical issue in the kitchen. Sirens and horns blared. As the ladder reached the top of the balcony, the firefighter dressed in full turn out gear, jumped out of the bucket with the ultimate romantic surprise. Although they had known one another since they were six, it took 20 years to fall in love.
Congratulations to these Moraga natives for starring in their own love story - Proposal to the Rescue! Watch it: http://screen.yahoo.com/episode-7-proposal-to-the-rescue-31030474.html.
