DOSSIER:
We had trouble communicating with Angela (Chi-Yeh) Boone. She has an
accent and we don’t hear well. We thought she said caskets, but it was
gaskets. She didn’t know what a pet peeve was. But we muddled through,
so fasten your seals and read all about the head honcho at
Fort Worth
Gasket and Supply. |
