They began their first endeavor into historic preservation after purchasing and restoring the 'Fountain House' in 1971 located at 6 S. Fountain Street in Cape Girardeau, where they have lived for 50 years. Since their start the couple has restored five buildings in line with historic preservation guidelines in Cape Girardeau, and they have helped bring history exhibits to the Kellerman Foundation building for the public to view.
