In the Suburbs: A holiday fairy tale right here in Fairfield Sign In Steven Gaynes FacebookTwitterEmail Last Saturday, Dec. 19, our Fairfield University Bookstore team took part in one of the most wonderful holiday stories we could have ever imagined. A young couple, Thomas Knowles and Mary-Megan Marshall stopped into the store right after their wedding on the Norwalk Green to visit and thank us for being the venue where they had their first date. But that was only part of this beautiful fairy tale. Thomas and Mary-Megan attended and graduated from Fairfield University in 2012 having never known or met each other. Granted, that is certainly not unusual at a major university. But post-graduation, as each was searching for true and lasting love, their journey took them to the website Tinder, where they met for the first time.
