Extreme Makeover: Home Edition has recently aired the story of thousands of volunteers, donations, and the help of local Delmarva based Dr. Energy Saver ® and Dryzone, LLC—to bring to life one family’s dream home. The new home was revealed on October 4, 2011.
80 years ago the foundation of the Johnson-Goslee family home was laid for generations to enjoy. It was nearing its last days just before being chosen by Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and the Fusion Companies as their next redesign.
Thousands of volunteers and donations aided the week-long project to repair the settling foundation, structural problems, plumbing, and other difficulties. Dr. Energy Saver Delaware and DryZone, LLC, local Delmarva contractors, provided all the materials and manpower to install more than 3,000 square/feet of the CleanSpace® system complete with Drainage Matting, the SaniDry® CX, and a condensate pump. All of which was completed in less than three hours only with the help from the contractor’s employees who volunteered their time to complete this gift to the Johnson-Goslee family.
The Johnson-Goslee family endured their home’s shortcomings proudly and unashamedly. Even after 16-year-old Whyzir lost his hand while helping his grandfather repair the home last Christmas Eve.
It will take more than losing a hand to deter this teen from helping his family and bettering his community, “It's not what I wanted to hear, but I know it was in God's plan for me,” Whyzir said.
For a young man who understands and contributes to giving and serving the community, it became time he and his family received a gift and enjoy a safer and healthier home.
Wyzhir lives with his mother, sister and Aunt.
