We're a Statistic...

...Bob got laid off today.

 He has worked for a small family owned garage in Delaware for the past eleven years...a business with a brilliant reputation.  Our car broke down in Delaware at least three years before he worked for them and all the people who stopped to help us told us to take the car to Leroy's...they are the best.  Bob has said over the past couple of months that business has been really slow.  Leroy told Bob he would hire him back if things picked up but that if things didn't pick up in the next couple of months he was afraid might go under.

 Here is a small family owned business with a spectacular reputation...who takes care of their employees in the family business kind of way.  Norma, Leroy's wife,will bring lunch for the shop at least twice a week...and I mean LUNCH...Mom food...sloppy joes...macaroni and cheese...fried chicken...chili...my not sound like much but think of making that stuff for twelve. 

Bob did not have any coverage through the shop.  Leroy did look into coverage at let two times and the cost were ridiculous. He tried.

Not a good for us
