Volunteers Dave and Beverly Suban
For twelve consecutive years, Dave and Beverly Suban have traveled from Tallahassee, Florida to help at Serb Fest. Lt. Colonel Dave is retired after 32 years active duty with the United States Air Force, 10 years civilian with Special Operations, and is a member of St. Sava Church. Together Beverly and Dave cheerfully average about 60 hours of service during Serb Fest each year, a donation of their time that is greatly appreciated. They have also contributed several items to our new museum, all family heirlooms. Dave's grandfather was the #2 man hired to help build the steel mills in the early 1900's, when there was nothing there but sand dunes and tall grass. St. Sava Church is extremely grateful for friends like Dave and Beverly!
