Hi:

Sorry to hear about closing of Union City plant. Linda DeHaven and others have been a real force behind the success WCMC rallies and great support for Workhorse customers. There has been a number of rv companies/suppliers that have left customers in a lurch. They forget quickly after the checks were cashed....

Hope Navistar remembers (?) that we need still need support. Most important I hope that they treat the employees in a fair manner, in there eyes, not the companies.

Without question, WCC owes a lot to Linda. She has been there everyday working customer issues and she has done an exceptional job in supporting the WCMC. I know Linda was working on other projects so I hope that she will be around for the long term as the company/chassis transitions through this interim period.
