Wegmans, Frackville -

"People ask why I have been at Wegmans for 28 years…I will tell you why…today there was a horrific pile up accident on 81 by the WEGMANS distribution center in Pottsville…we took in around 50 crash survivors, from all different backgrounds. Truck drivers, families and their pets, elderly folks were shuttled to our facility…we gave them food, water, coffee, warmth and a listening ear...Wegmans is more then just a retail grocery company…that is why I continue to work for Wegmans." - Tara Biller, Wegmans Employee
