Gary Von Fange, Custodian
Gary's job includes keeping the church facilities
clean--and doing the floors is a big part of this operation!
Gary is responsible for setting up the rooms for Sunday
morning Bible classes, as well as for our Wednesday evening mid-week
classes.
In addition to keeping the other facilities (sanctuary,
offices, library, classrooms, kitchen, nursery, restrooms, general
fellowship area, and our detached garage) neat and clean, the custodian
does the lawn maintenance (mowing, edging, hedge trimming) and snow
removal from walkways when necessary.
