Liz and austin dating


“Mark was always saying when we get married this and when we get married that, it was never well, do you want to get married?” Liz said. Sitting in a Valentinos the summer before Liz’s second year of law school, they decided they wanted to get married. The more Liz got to know Mark, the more he’d find excuses to cover stories in Lincoln and visit Liz who was in law school at UNL during this time. Soon, it went from hanging out with Karen to hanging out with Karen and Mark. Liz’s best friend, Karen (Wittwer) Kiekow, had also graduated from the CoJMC and she worked at the Grand Island Daily Independent, so Liz went to Grand Island most weekends to spend time with her. Liz was still in Lincoln finishing up her undergraduate courses so she could graduate.

While at CoJMC they saw each other at a lot of the same parties, but they were always just friends.Īfter graduating, Mark started working at the Grand Island Daily Independent. Mark Getzfred and Liz Austin were friends long before they got together.
