Kentuckians on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

ABC

A two-hour episode of ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition that aired Sunday helped out a Louisville family, plus the entire University of Louisville marching band.

Patrick Hughes, who is blind and uses a wheelchair, plays trumpet in U of L's marching band. The house rebuilt by scads of volunteers and the EMHE crew was more accessible for him and a better fit for his family. (At the end of the episode, we heard that the family's mortgaged was paid off, and then some, too, which is particularly impressive.)

The crew also rebuilt the marching band's practice field, creating a level, green field and a adding new lights. Fancy.

Lexington artist Jessie Dunahoo was featured on the episode in segments that told how the 75-year old man, who is blind, deaf and can't speak, creates artwork based on touch. Here's a Herald-Leader article written in 2000 about the artist. He works out of the arts studio Latitude in Lexington, which saw its name splashed across the television when it aired.
