The Extreme Home Makeover

When we heard that Charles Criniere passed away leaving behind his wife Megan and 10 kids (9 are still at home). We immediately wanted to do something because we knew that if the tables were turned, Charlie would do something extraordinary for any of our families family. 8 years ago Charlie and Megan bought a humble home in Kansas City to do life with their 10 kids. The house needed work when they moved, and they tried to do some renovations here and there to make it into a good living space for their growing family. However, they never made it very far down their list on their budget. Charlie was a dedicated public school teacher to impact the next generation, not to make a big bank account. However, just a few weeks before Charlie died, he was getting really serious about getting some projects done around the house! He had numerous contractors over giving estimates, and Megan and he were again dreaming together of what could be. But then tragedy struck... Over the last six months we have seen nothing short of a miracle. over 20 companies have donated materials and labor worth well over $150k! It has been an extraordinary display of God's love being poured onto a grieving family through the hard work of willing individuals. This video is dedicated to Will and Susan Manda who own Blue Cedar Landscape who donated the time and materials to prep and lay new sod for the Criniere Family. Thank you Blue Cedar Landscape!
