BLAINE - Oh and thanks for letting us visit the warehouse a few years back. I remember when we arrived September 11th and Anthony was having a bad day due to his close experience with the tragedy. I hope your state can now pull together like you did back then. Everyone is being affected and the need for support is universal. Stay safe and healthy. Best, Blaine |
