I am very late in putting this post up. It is one that I just hate to do. Brad Patton, one of our service plumbers, was in a car accident, and subsequently died after two weeks in a coma. It is a terrible loss to anyone who knew him. Every customer, co-worker, friend is totally stunned. He was a great guy, and a great friend.
