84 Lumber in Stockertown is Closing

According to this in the Express Times, 84 Lumber in Stockertown is closing after nearly 33 years in business.

While Spokesman Jeff Nobers stated that "the buildings materials supplier typically depends more on contractors for its business than walk-in customers", I personally finished my basement three or four years ago, and purchased alot of supplies from 84 lumber. It was pretty close to my house, and when you strap six or so sheets of drywall to the top of your old Chevy Blazer, you don't want to have to drive very far (or fast).
