Friends/Family Want to Honor Man Killed in Tractor Accident By Finishing His Woodinville Dream Home

In John Norman's memory, a website has been created to raise the funds needed to complete construction on the house.

A 31-year-old man who was building his dream home for his family in Woodinville was killed May 11 in a tractor accident, according to a report on KING-5 News.

John Thomas Norman had been working nights and weekends to build the home for his family; wife Breanna, who is pregnant, and their young daughter. He was hoping to complete it before the baby's arrival in September.

In his memory, a website has been created through youcaring.com to raise the funds needed to complete construction on the house. 

On the site, which should begin accepting donations soon, it says:
 
"His family wishes to honor John by completing the house so that his wife and children may live in the house that was being built for them with love.  It is their hope that his children may feel the love that their dad had for them, even though he is no longer with them."

If anyone would like to donate time or skills to the completion of the house, Mike Barter will be coordinating those efforts and can be reached at 206-660-2143 or by e-mail at suncon@comcast.net
