However, I dealt with the same addresses for years. It's incredible that Gleda would have that sort of memory for customers who surely weren't placing monthly orders.


Gleda did say the reason she remembered was the street name, "Roach Road" , it's kind of unusual and it stuck in her head.

It was named after a local historical figure in my area Billy Roach who started the first pickle factory around here.

That's how I get my company name "Roachwerks Custom Machining".

It has nothing to do with bugs!
