Kathi and Gene Sandburg, parents of fallen Petty Officer Brendon Sandburg, will receive a mortgage-free home as part of the Port St. Lucie Gold Star Family Home Giveaway. 
 
In partnership with the Port St. Lucie Neighborhood Services Department, GL Homes will build a mortgage-free, 2,435-square-foot home. The City of Port St. Lucie donated the lot to the selected family, vetted through St. Lucie County’s Veterans Service Division. GL Homes will build a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car garage home, with a den, which will be completed in July 2022, and then donated to the Sandburg family.
 
“Kathi and Gene Sandburg’s son, Brendon, made the ultimate sacrifice for our country,” said GL Homes Division President of St. Lucie County Ryan Courson. “GL Homes hopes the house we build for this Gold Star Family provides comfort, security and healing.”
