Bauman and Peters Sponsored Homes
In Honor of
Virgil & Jennie Peters
In 2002, Dr. Virgil Peters,
then president of the Habitat Board of Directors, went to a regional conference
where he heard about a couple who celebrated their 50th
anniversary by raising the money to build a Habitat home. Excited by this idea
he returned to the community committed to sponsoring the construction of a house
in honor of his and Jennie’s 50th
wedding anniversary. Dr. Tim Peters, also a long-time board member, has been a
key supporter and advocate in honoring his parents in this way. The Peters will
be partnering with Luda Skvortsova and her daughter Anna.
In Honor of
Ivo Bauman
Virgil’s enthusiasm was caught
by fellow North Willamette Valley Habitat for Humanity board member Tom Bauman
who organized
his family, including his siblings and mother, Tecie, to raise money to build a
house in honor of his late father, Ivo Bauman. Ivo is being honored for his
leadership in founding the local work of Habitat (formerly known as Habitat for
Humanity, Mt. Angel Area ) in 1986.
This home is the
25th
home to be constructed by North Willamette Valley and will be built during the
20-year anniversary of the affiliate. The Baumans will work with partner family
Steve Duran and his four children, Sarah, Laurel, Andrew, and Caleb.
