Osburn Family Home Dedication

Habitat for Humanity of Geauga County dedicated their most recent home on Saturday February 16th. The home in Middlefield Ohio now belongs to the Osburn family, Clayton, his wife Jessie and their daughter Olivia. Shown with the family in their new home is Habitat for Humanity Geauga County board member Bob Royer making the traditional presentation of the Family Bible to the Osburns

The Osburns contributed over 500 hours of sweat equity and are now responsible for a mortgage on their dream home! Habitat Geauga Board President Bill O'Donnell said “This is the 20th year for Habitat in Geauga county during which time we have build over 60 homes for deserving families like the Osburns. As we go into our 21st year we look to greater Geauga County for volunteers, contributions and affordable land to continue our ministry.”

Hart Family Home Dedication

On Saturday, December 8, 2007 we celebrated the dedication of Hart Family's new home. Karen Hart is a single mom with one 14-year old son, Cody. Cody has been attending West Geauga High School. Karen works as a title clerk and earns enough to qualify for Habitat home ownership. Karen is “very focused and determined to make this work,” and she heard about Habitat through another Habitat family in Geauga County. Their new home is at 14969 Lake Ave in Middlefield.

Habitat Board President Charles Moriarty commented that “The Harts are an outstanding example of a Habitat family. They worked hard during the construction, stayed dedicated to the challenge and now have bought a wonderful home. We wish them well!”

What Do You Get the Person Who Has Everything?

We've noticed a trend. When faced with the “what to give the person who has everything” dilemma, many folks are choosing to give a donation to honor their loved one. Way better than a tie, don't you think? When it truly is the thought that counts, why not be thoughtful and help someone in need?
