I've got Nocona Pres. Rob Storey's statement of reconstruction in email and will send to anyone. He stated positively that they are moving ahead and employees will be paid! He told me that they saved about 75% of their little museum, which was a relief. They were lucky in that it happened just as they were coming to work 8 a.m. and were able to save key items such as computers, finished orders, key equipment. No one was injured.
They were lucky also that they had started the full production on gloves yet and were finishing up football gear, late orders. Also that they may be able to move into the empty Nocona boot company factory.
I will probably go there in a couple of weeks.
