14 Odell Street Home Dedication |
|
  On September 9th, 2008 we presented house keys to our newest homeowner, Holly Nicholson, at 14 Odell Street in Albany. Construction of the home was sponsored by St. Edward's the Confessor Roman Catholic Church and the Melville family. Upon realizing the American Dream, the single mother of three said, "First, I want to thank God for making this happen for me and my family. This was always my dream, to own my own home, and my dream has come true for me, and I want to thank everyone for making this happen for my family." |
