Granny's House
Sheriff Hamilton, TCSO and the community
have come together
to rebuild a home for
Mrs. Geneva Houston who has lived in
east Austin since
1961 and who we have
come to affectionately know as "Granny."
The
house was in very poor shape
and the Sheriff has worked with many folks
in
Austin to rebuild her a new home.
Just in time for Mother's Day 2007, Granny received the keys to her new home.
