After retirement, Veronica immediately began caring for her grandchildren. “I retired in 2011 with four grandkids,” she says with a laugh. “There have been five more since then, and I’m still waiting to take a vacation!”

Wear on her three-bedroom, single-story home added up over time. Her house needed safe, functional steps to the entrance, ventilation, moisture mitigation, and a host of other external and interior repairs.

With help from our friends from DPR Construction and the Town of Garner, RTT made permanent home improvements, ensuring the health and safety of Veronica and her young grandchildren.

Busy with kids’ summer schedules, Veronica remains wishful for a vacation someday. But she adds, “this–right here–is the next best thing.”
