I grew up in the Fruitland community and attended FBC in my early years. I was saved when I was eleven years old and rededicated my commitment to the Lord in 1978 while serving in the Air Force. Shortly after retiring from the service in 1998, I joined FBC. Since that time, I have had the pleasure of serving the body as a deacon, Sunday school teacher and care leader as well as being able to attend many short term mission trips. My wife Judy and I have two sons and one granddaughter.
