Wow, goodness, gracious me
"Wow, goodness, gracious me!" A stunned Hans doesn't know what else
think to say.A crowd of more than 100 people packs onto Hans' tiny front yard. Tarps cover his house."Here's the keys to your new house," says friend Laura Lundin as she hands over two sets of house keys. Then she yells into her bullhorn, and the tarps drop. The crowd claps and cheers.
Again, Hans says, "Goodness, gracious me."While Hans was away all week, he had no idea that dozens of people were completely remodeling his Lacey home, inside and out. As his gaze absorbs his new exterior paint and shingled roof, Lundin ushers the Funk family inside. There, they see new furniture, appliances, a whole new bathroom and kitchen.
Again, Hans says, "Goodness, gracious me."To put Hans' shock in perspective, consider how the Funk's home looked just one week ago. A hole in the living room ceiling leaked water, the bathroom floor
think was ready to give way and the tub fixtures barely worked. Their back shed was ready to collapse.
