Sallie Holzbaur, Musical Director

Today we honored Sallie Holzbaur for over 50 years as the Musical Director of the Groveville United Methodist Church, She has untiringly been our Choir Director, our Organist, Pianist, and Choreographed our Christmas Cantata, for all these years.
.

Sallie has held many positions of the church, including our Lay Leader for many years. Sallie has elected to step down from these positions and take a break from the demands. She is not retiring all together, she has said that she will be more than happy to fill in for, life long church member, "Skippy" Goldy, who we are so lucky to have, that will be taking over for Sallie.

Sallie was presented with a book titled "Believe" and a commemorative plaque
