The city will have to face the fact that it has lost it's Ford Dealership because it's gone. I attended an employee appreciation rally today at the dealership. Good turnout. Really sad to see it close. I believe there is more to this story that will eventually come out. The former owner Tommy Calhoun barely addressed the crowd. When he did speak he told us he would be "popping" back up somewhere else and he hoped we would come and support him. It all just sounded strange to me.
