This story was first shared in October with the Director of Leavener by Brent Moon. Brent unpacked how he had run across a friend from his past at lunch one day in July. The friend was going through some pretty tough circumstances. Brent's friend's name is Ralph Burke. Ralph is married to Belinda and has two children, Elizabeth & Noah. Elizabeth was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis shortly after her birth. They lived in a 90 year old house in Carmel, IN. Ralph was in the process of remodeling and enlarging this house. This project became more than Ralph could handle both financially and physically. The Burke family had moved out and is currently living with Belinda's parents. He was ready to walk away from his house and let it go into foreclosure.
Today, the Leavener Director met with Brent Moon and John Getchell (Getchell Brothers Construction) and talked about the possibility of helping this family finish their house so their family could be back together in their own home. We knew we needed to gather more information at this point.
