Habitat for Humanity rehabs home for Sycamore family

For Kelli Larsen, Sunday was a dream come true.

After a full year of spending every Saturday rebuilding a house on Roosevelt Court in Sycamore, Larsen was finally able to call a house a home after years of renting. It was a gift she always wanted to give her 14-year-old son Keagon and 21-year-old son Eathon, who has yet to see his new home because he is in South Korea with the military.

“It’s been an adventure,” Larsen said of building a home with volunteers from Habitat for Humanity. “The hearts of many have really been in this house and it has a lot of memories already.”
