Mike Wahl , son of Greg Wahl, had a wonderful program today about Wahl Clipper Corp. Greg was in attendance adding even more information about their family business that was started in 1919. They now have 29 locations with nearly 3,000 employees. The new building in Sterling will be their Global Offices. They have almost 1,000 employees in the Sterling facility. Family always comes first. In a recent employee survey, 96.6 of the employees said Wahl Clipper is a good place to work. Completion of the Tagma Wahl should be done in April or May.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
