CLEVELAND, Ohio — HGTV, short for Home & Garden Television, features shows that bring dream homes to life for families.
As an 11-year-old, Harold Fannin Jr. regularly watched the channel with his mother, Lakeesha Wise, in their Canton home.
Together, they dreamed.
Of a spacious home with the design and amenities of their choice, where life is peachy; one that the whole family would love, and especially his mother.
“Growing up with a big family, my mom did the best that we could have,” Fannin said. “Sometimes you click on and be like, ‘Man, I want to live there when I get old.’ ”
