Member Spotlight: Paul Corbo
Meet Paul Corbo! This is Paul's 1st year as a garden ministry member. He is also involved in prison ministry and the Knights of Columbus. Paul moved to Texas three years ago from Illinois with his wife, Kim (also a garden ministry member). He graduated from Bradley University with a degree in electrical engineering. When not gardening, Paul enjoys shooting sports and outdoor activities. His favorite thing about the garden is the people! His least favorite thing? Bugs!
From Paul: "Come out and have some fun in the garden and the sun!"
Thanks Paul for all of your hard work.
