When I first heard Linda's voicemail asking for help it grabbed my heart.
Talking through tears, she begged for guidance trying to get someone to help with a plumbing situation that left her with no other choice but to reach out.
Wednesday afternoon I headed to Linda's home in Sharpsburg to meet her and see the conditions she's dealing with. In the video on this page, you'll hear why she's on a fixed income and what happened after her sister passed away recently. You'll also see why she has to go to the bathroom in her backyard.

It's a situation that we had to address, and after hearing Linda's voicemail, my friend Lisa Mertz at Matt Mertz Plumbing couldn't ignore it either.
Matt Mertz Plumbing crews will be at Linda's home in Sharpsburg on Thursday and we will be following up with them and Linda to see what needs to be done and what needs to be done about it.
