•This past year members of the Remodelers Council of the Homebuilders Association of Greater Des Moines came together to convert a half bath and closet into a fully accessible bathroom.
The remodeled bathroom was needed to enable Harold and Bill to become a little more independent and safe in a barrier free shower.
They are two of the World War II Vets who are living at a Veteran’s Administration Medical Foster Home in Cambridge, Iowa, operated by Scott and Marilyn Olson.
As Special Events Chairperson of the Remodelers Council I take pride that our Des Moines Remodelers Council members have committed time and resources to serving our community.
