Washburn, David N.: - "David dedicated himself to public education for thirty-five years. Much of his career was invested in teaching seventh-grade students. David enjoyed their level of energy and curiosity. His greatest passion is that everyone would know the love and grace of Jesus - especially young people. He served as a youth minister, a leader in prison ministry, and was a United Methodist pastor for a number of years. He resides in Bergen, New York, with Cathy, his wife of twenty-five years."
