While Melinda “Mindy” Stockdale was at Texas Christian University she met Chris Layne through mutual friends. He proposed at the Texas Tech fountains and surprised her with a party at the Tech Club in the football stadium. The proposal ring that Chris created and designed using family diamonds was passed down through four generations. They wed Sept. 5 at Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church among greenery and blush pink and light blue flowers. Celebrating at the feast and party at Houston Country Club were the parents of the couple, Joseph and Lindy Shields Stockdale II, Lynn Layne Rada and Jerry and Judy Layne. Chris is a graduate of Texas Tech School of Law, and Mindy has a master of education in educational leadership.
