Our Latest Inductee
Gabriel Homes celebrated the induction of Jim Anderson (center), owner of The Anderson Company, into the Hall of Fame class of 2025. The Anderson Company, under Jim’s leadership, has donated well over a hundred thousand dollars of services and equipment usage to Gabriel Homes.
Jim, a quiet force behind Gabriel Homes, worked with business partner and former Gabriel Homes chair Mike Holupka to repair and maintain the many aspects of the six homes. Whenever a home needed a truck, landscaping, or a new driveway, Jim and Mike approached every problem with thoughtful solutions.
In addition to donating resources to Gabriel Homes, Jim’s generosity extended to the annual golf tournament. Many of Jim’s friends golfed for Gabriel Homes in the early years, and some are loyal golfers over 30 years later. The Anderson Company was one of the event’s first Guardian Angel sponsors, Gabriel Homes’ highest tier of support.
“Gabriel Homes would not be where it is today without Jim’s help. He’s made all the difference in all aspects of the organization – the board, staff, sponsors, and most importantly, the residents.”
The Anderson Company continues to leave a lasting impact on Gabriel Homes. Multiple Anderson trucks pull up with equipment and supplies when the Gabriel Homes Work Crew arrives for home maintenance. Recent projects see trucks filled with mulch when the crew tends to the homes’ gardens. One of the largest projects The Anderson Company led was the installation of a French drain system to redirect groundwater from one home. The once-boggy backyard became a space for sports, yard work, and morning coffee.
“The sky is the limit for Gabriel Homes. The kind, generous leaders like Jim helped make us the strong, financially solid organization we are today.”
“Monsignor Bob and Mike have both embodied the vision of service over the years of Gabriel Homes, and I am honored to play a part and follow in their footsteps.”
