Office Manager Pat Keyes is an indispensable member of the Central staff. A former teacher with
a master's degree in special education from Northern Illinois University, Pat worked for churches
and church organizations in the Episcopal and Lutheran denominations before coming to Central
in 1995. Pat handles all kinds of administrative tasks, publishes the weekly newsletter, and
occasionally teaches classes. Pat has two children and enjoys reading and needlework. She and
husband Peter met and married at Central and now attend Fountain City United Methodist.
Central's newest staff member is James Scruggs, who became the
custodian in November 2007. James is a high school graduate of the
Alabama School for the Deaf. He describes himself as a
"Jack-of-all-trades," with the exception of roof work. When he's not working, he enjoys fishing, camping, and traveling and is a NASCAR fan. James and his wife Pat have three children between them, one of whom is serving in the Army in Afghanistan, and four grandchildren.

Bill Hutton, a member of Central UMC for fifteen years, is responsible for security but prefers
the title of "Minister of Grounds and Facilities." Bill coordinates with groups using the building,
ensuring their safety and good stewardship of our facility. After almost 40 years in technical and
field service work, Bill has traveled to 49 states, 23 countries, and 3 continents, adding Honduras
recently while honeymooning with his new bride Susan. Bill has 2 grown children, and 5
grandchildren. A recent graduate of Pellissippi State in Web Site Development, he also works on
the website team.

Billie Morgan presides over the kitchen at Central. She has served as church hostess since 1995,
preparing the food for congregational meals and special events. (Her yeast rolls have gained quite
a reputation.) Billie graduated from Young High School. She's married to Bill, and they have two
daughters and three granddaughters. She attends Meridian Baptist Church, where she helps her
daughter cook for that congregation.
