We've had a relationship with the firm for a long time. Hank [Houser], before Rep [DeLoach], actually dealt with his dad [Dennis R. DeLoach Jr.] back when he owned Wright's nursing home, and this was back in the 70s and 80s and 90s. So, that relationship with the firm goes way back. That's when I first met Gloria. From the beginning, we just hit it off and built up a good working relationship. Her being what she did at Wrights, and me being at the nursing home, and then we built The Vineyard 27 years ago. In that relationship, when she calls and needs help, I try to be extremely responsive, and I do whatever I can do to make it happen because I trust her. When she says someone needs help, then they need help. So, during the hurricane, I actually had a couple of empty rooms, which was a blessing because then when Gloria called in a panic, it was like, sure, bring them.
And so you just do what you got to do. I mean, it's all about helping people.
