Then Bruce Prevost, a longtime member of the special needs ministry, told a story.
"Frank the Janitor," had visited the special needs center about six weeks ago. Early in life when he was still a janitor, Frank had donated his life savings of $25,000 to a church ministry, before becoming successful in business, Prevost said.
When Frank heard about the Szukas' struggle with a hurricane-damaged, wheelchair-unfriendly home, he decided to provide them with a furnished, accessible house while remaining anonymous. A 4,752-square-foot Loxahatchee home, worth $500,000, built on 1.2 acres in 2003 for a wheelchair-bound man, was the perfect solution. In the last week, church volunteers had painted and personalized it. "
Your family has served and served and served, and been an example of boundless love," Prevost said, handing them an oversized gold key, wrapped in Christmas ribbon.Interesting...
