John Norman was building his family’s dream home in Woodinville when he died in a tractor accident last week.

Family and friends of the 31-year-old man are now banding together to complete the home before Norman’s baby girl is born in September.

Family friend Mike Barter tells the Ron and Don Show that Norman had framed up a beautiful home, but it still needs some of the major systems installed and the detail work done.

The Ron and Don Show is hoping to raise enough funds through online donations to help buy the group materials like tile, appliances, lighting fixtures.

Besides construction supplies, friends are hoping to buy things like diapers and clothes for the daughter, Cadence, he leaves behind. Not only that, but the Norman’s will need newborn clothing and diapers for when baby Abigail arrives this fall.

Those items are being accepted through the Kirkland Eagles Club.

Thank you all for your help!
