Greetings, friends!

I've had the honor and privilege of serving God in music ministries at First Baptist since 1984. It’s been my joy to lead worship, serve as pianist and organist, direct our children’s choir, participate in our adult vocal and handbell choirs, and since 2005, serve as Worship Director.

Originally a music major at Miami University, I later transitioned to business administration. God continued though to draw my heart to His music leading me to complete Christian music studies through the Robert Webber Institute for Worship. My most memorable musical experiences were singing in tour choirs with Steve Green and Promise Keepers, what a joy!

One of God’s greatest gifts is family, and I am immeasurably blessed with three wonderful sons, daughters-in-law and five grandchildren. Lynne and I enjoy boating with family and friends, watching our favorite shows & movies and am “known” to enjoy travel to tropical locations!

My favorite Bible verse is Jeremiah 29:11, and what I value most about belonging here are life-long friendships, Dr. Holloway encouraging me to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, bringing greater awareness of missions to my life, and serving in a church that encourages and supports our callings in ministry.

This is a great place to be, one that I pray is for you as well!
