Many people may not be aware of the damage that was caused by the storms last week. New Garden township was hit particularly hard from Baltimore Pike, Newark rd, Penn Green, Starr & Ellicott. This area is heavily populated with Mushroom growers and supporting businesses. While the entire R.M. Crossan staff did an amazing job providing service for our customers, 2 employees went above and beyond. Steve Allaband & Nate Crossan battled the heat, the darkness, downed power lines & trees while delivering fuel to the much needed generators that provide power to the Growers. They worked 40 straight hours with little food, breaks and sleep from Wednesday morning until late Thursday night delivering over 38,000 gallons of fuel. The growers stand to lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in crop loss without power and these two did not let that happen. I thank you for your dedication and hard work, and I know our customers thank you as well
