We were so blessed to be with Grandma Anna Olivarez. and her family.. We met Builda, her daughter, and her three children, one of whom is Debbie, the one year old (can you see her one finger!), Beto, her grandson, and Odilia, her daughter-in-law, who came every day to help Grandma Anna cook her lunch. Anna is 76, has lost her husband, and is recovering from breast cancer. Her daughter had the concrete work done in the bathroom and bought the tile from Mexico. This is a bigger project than we normally do but everyone felt she deserved it. She owns the home, is a citizen of the United States, and is older so qualifies within the Aging and Disability Agency in town through which the NOMADS worked.

We loved the family and Anna and I cried when we left. We will keep in touch with this family forever. They are in our hearts always.
