COMMENTS:

Raul first worked for us as a Harvester in 2011. He left within the year, and returned in 2014, when brother, Daniel told him about the opening in the Shop. Raul had studied engine maintenance and had worked as a mechanic. Since then, he was able to bring his family over from Mexico. Raul plans on staying at South Mill and learning as much as he can so that he can do more for the Company.
