STOCKTON WHEEL IS CLOSED FOR BUSINESS AS OF Mar 31, 2011
The streets don't get wider, if you drive slower !

Their message on the phone states they had a death in the family.  Sounds like they will be filling existing orders, but not taking new ones as they are closing their doors.

THIS SUCKS!  They seem to put out a nice product. 
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Hey Guys, its worse than you think. The owner has commited suicide. They are apparently handling current orders and most likely closing for good. I heard this on another site.

It truly is Brad, and my heart really goes out to all that knew him.

Here is the post:

The owner, Frank Mauro, Jr., commited suicide so to the best of my knowledge the business is no longer around.
