Farm & Home Technicians Helped to Create a Dream Home for The Urban Family
In February of 2009, 30-year-old Andrew Urban suffered a fatal heart attack, just hours before his daughter Cora was born. The tragedy that this Berks County family suffered sparked a community response that caught the attention of Ty Pennington and the entire design team of the well-known ABC TV show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Led by the Home Builders Association of Berks County, skilled volunteers from every home building trade stepped up to complete every detail and requirement to give Andrew's family a new home, helping them achieve their hopes and dreams.
Farm & Home Energy Technicians volunteered to install the Urban home's 500 gallon underground LP tank and interior pipes. Trisha Urban and her 1-year-old daughter, Cora, were presented with their new home on August 6th, 2010 in front of a large community gathering. The Urban Family's episode aired on ABC in late October.
Jason Trotter, Farm & Home Service Manager, led the team of technicians in a wonderful collaborative effort with other craft and tradesmen from all over Eastern & Central Pennsylvania.
"We were able to help out a family in need and it was an awesome thing to experience," said Mr. Trotter.
