When Anne and Palma returned from their vacation at the Ellensburg Dude Ranch, Anne was reunited with her boyfriend at the time, Jim Kirke. Jim was from the local military base and had been seeing Anne on and off for a while. So, suffice it to say, Anne was surprised when Tom showed up during her first weekend back home!

Every weekend for three weeks in a row, Tom showed up at the Davis house. Anne wasn’t quite sure what to do, so she showed him around the area, doing her best to explain things to Jim. Her employer was a little disturbed at the sudden appearance of this man.

The third week, as Tom and Anne sat in her front room talking, he got down on one knee and pulled a ring out of his pocket. Anne says, “Well, I’d never been proposed to before, so I figured I should just say ‘yes!’” Which is exactly what she did.
