In January 2021, Gean LeVar of Glendale, Arizona, went through the darkest
moment of her life. She lost her house and her 58-year-old husband on the
same day.
The cops had to condemn her home because of the deplorable living
conditions they discovered there. The widow also had no relatives or
children to turn to.
When Carmen Silva learned about Gean's situation, she hardly recognized
her. She didn't consider it to be a cause not to help her, though.
She reportedly said to Gean, "Don't worry, we'll fix it," according to CBS
News.
The Silvas have eight kids and a three-bedroom home. No matter how crowded
they were already, they were happy to make place for one more.
In order to provide their new adopted granny with a cozy bed, Carmen's boys
gave up their bed and slept on the sofa.
She claims that now that she has a family, she appears to be quite
happy.
Carmen may not agree with those who believe she went too far in her
neighborliness.
As a father, I've always instilled in my kids the value of looking after
their elders.
Gean claims that her new family means the world to her.
On the official CBS News Facebook page, Gean's story was posted, and many
people were moved by the Silva family's selfless support of their neighbor.
Their observations are as follows: "The most giving individuals are
generally the ones who have the least."
The very finest. The children and relatives that gave up so much for the
old person have my deepest sympathy. A new house should be built for the
children. They are under the care of God. "That is the main focus. Nothing
is more lovely than kindness. You should treat others how you would like to
be treated.
A nonprofit organization called "Operating Enduring Gratitude" that assists
Arizona soldiers and their families heard her tale and decided to
help.
The majority of veterans take use of the resources, but others are
overlooked. This one slipped between the cracks, according to the founder
and CEO of the company, Charlie Ellis.
Volunteers worked nonstop to refurbish the run-down home while Gean's late
husband, Thomas, served two years as a payload specialist in the Navy.
Gean claimed he always took pride in his service.

Over the course of 18 months, about 200 volunteers, including students,
veterans, and members of the veteran community, refurbished the 1950s-era
home.
We're all working together to make someone's life complete, as one
volunteer put it.
Gean strolled into her newly renovated home while beaming broadly. Her
greatest enthusiasm in her new kitchen is for cooking.
I think it's amazing, she remarked.
"The electrical system has been updated. She can enter our showers on her
own. That is great, Charlie exclaimed. It's nice to see so many individuals
who care about our soldiers in this place. so as to spread the love. Their
time has come. their kind generosity
The Silvas gave Gean a home when she was in need, and now that her home is
no longer condemned, she intends to live there with them.
