Mel and Suzanne have been married for over 14 years. Together with the four children that God has given them, they live just outside of Ridgefield on the old family homestead of Suzanne's great grandparents.

Although they have been trying to raise animals
and a garden on their property, it would have to be admitted that the remodeling business
goes smoother than the home farm.

In October of 2008, Mel purchased T Square Remodeling, which he had worked at for 9 years before starting Sunshine Remodeling.
