Project: Tri County Area Realty Association REALTOR Care Day 2008 --The Graven Family With an emotional reading, group prayer, and not to mention a few tears, our Tri County Realty Association project was off to a start! Marguerite Graven and her family watched with sincere gratitude as we added to and cleaned up their existing landscaping, replaced the old porch railing system to something that required less maintenance and toiled over other labors of love, that steamy Thursday afternoon. Even though we worried the humidity would set back the painting of the living and dining rooms, things went very smoothly! With all of the amazing support and donations from our members and local community, we were able to complete many household projects for this deserving family, such as professional tree trimming, landscaping, window washing, painting, organizing, furniture cleaning, door staining, porch railing replacement, wallpaper removal and detailing! And even though we may have also donated many buckets of sweat, all faces were smiling and excited to have made such a positive difference in the Graven Family?s life!
