Round Top Closing

It happened quickly and abruptly.

An announced closure followed by receivership. People without their paychecks, and of course some surprises.

Jaque Cormier a former forman from Genfast got stung with this one.

And Graham Jones spouse worked their as well.

But their is a private members bill to focus on deodorant smells, if that makes them feel any better.
