Former members, Tim Coburn and son, Kevin, will be returning to Littleton for the spring school semester and are looking for a place to live.

Kevin is going to attend Denver Christian Schools. Both are excited about being back in Littleton for this time. In terms of housing, they are looking for a furnished place... at a minimum, a two-bedroom apartment...as close to DU as possible. They are willing to rent, lease, or house-sit. If you know of anything, you can contact Tim directly at tim.coburn@coba.acu.edu or (325) 674-2206 (work) or (325) 672-3254 (home). They will be here roughly January 1 - June 1. Thanks! THANK YOU: |
