One knock can change seven lives.

ABC-TVs Extreme Makeover: Home Edition surprised an Armada

Township family this morning, telling them their 900-square-foot,

mold-infested farmhouse will be transformed.

The show visited ann Gilliam and her six children, ranging in

ages from 8 months to 12 years old, at a relatives home in Mt.

Clemens before whisking them away on a vacation. They are expected

to return to a newly renovated home that should be unveiled next

Monday.

On Christmas Eve 2005, Gilliam, 41, died unexpectedly. A

family doctor theorized dangerous levels of toxic spores may have

been responsible for the firefighter and emergency medical

technicians death. His wife and children had to vacate the home.

American Heartland Homebuilder and Lombardo Homes both based in

Macomb County will rebuild the home along with host Ty Pennington,

the shows design team and about 3,000 workers, subcontractors and

volunteers. Construction is scheduled to begin Wednesday.

This is the shows second foray into Metro Detroit. In 2004, the

show featured the drastic change of an Oak Park home.
