Originally, it was designed as a finish ing, shipping and warehousing facility to employ approximately 100 people, and with plans for expansion over the next few years.

The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friend ship divine in this? --Thoreau -3-
