Larry graciously spoke at the dedication and humbly said, “I am fortunate to have free time, and that I can spend it doing work on this house. I’m certainly happy that this family will live here.” Sharon Mason, a longtime Habitat supporter herself, led those in attendance in prayer. She also shared a few words about her own personal experience with Larry, “He’s always been so nice to work with…[The house] is a work of beauty and reflects the beauty of the person who worked on it.”
Hana Guche, the new homeowner, also addressed everyone at the dedication. With tears in her eyes, Hana said that when they discovered that they were approved to become Habitat homeowners, “It was an exciting moment, and we started dreaming. Becoming a homeowner is a turning point in our lives.”
