In 2006, an old lady was offered million dollars to sell her house in Seattle, Washington. However, she refused to sell this little house despite the huge offer that was given to her.
The 84-year old woman didn’t want to destroy her house. A mall was being built in the area. But the engineer and construction company needed to be extra careful not to harm the house and the yard of Edith.
Her perseverance against the corporate pressure served as an inspiration to all. This story became an inspiration of Pixar to create a film about the little house. It was entitled, ‘Up’.
But in 2008, Edith Macefield passed away. It was a surprise that she left her little home to the head of the construction in the neighboring site named Barry Martin.
It was him who took him to the doctors. This friendship was priceless.
