Plainfield Patch

A Joliet woman who lost her husband and her son to tragedies could soon lose her house too. In a demonstration organized by the Chicago Anti-Eviction Campaign and the local chapter ofWarehouse Workers for Justice, nearly 30 people stood in protest in front of the Wells Fargo Home Mortgage office on Lockport Street Monday morning, rallying in support of Loleta Barrow-Leggett. The 46-year-old mother said she’s asking the bank to work with her to help her stay in the Meadowsledge Lane home she purchased with her husband, Charles, shortly after their son’s death in 2006.
