GAIL ROSENTHAL & LANCE KAPLAN Gail grew up in Montreal and earned a degree in recreology at the University of Ottawa. Lance grew up in Atlanta and completed his graduate studies in electrical engineering at the University of Southern California in 1994. Had they met while Lance was finishing school, they would have been bitter rivals as the Montreal Canadians prevailed over the Los Angeles Kings in the 1993 Stanley Cup Finals. Fortunately, they met five years later in Atlanta through Mosaic, a Jewish outing club. They fell in love, got married, moved to Kemp Mill in 2005 and brought home their beautiful daughter Ariana from Guatemala two years later. Lance is a researcher at the Army Research Laboratory and enjoys the short commute. Gail works as a recreation therapist. The Kaplan/Rosenthal family feels fortunate to be part of the wonderful KMS community. They now enjoy the Washington Capitals’ Stanley Cup Championship together as a happy family. Nevertheless as a proud Canadian, Gail still yearns for the Cup to return to Canada, and Lance would like to see Atlanta close out just one major sports championship over a full season during his lifetime.
