The old church on the corner of Denny and O’Connell Streets is going through the first steps on renovation. The foundation is being repaired starting today. The repair should be finished in four days. Jean Norman, Carrie Waller and others of the former Howe Historical Society donated the money that was left from the former organization to be used for this first stage of renovation. Howe Mercantile owner Dr. Georgia Caraway also contributed a substantial amount for the project. The foundation repair is being done by AAA Guardian Foundation Repair of Sherman.
Beyond the foundation repair will come a community fundraiser to help completely restore the building.
