Not currently.
It was my understanding that the daughter was possibly going to be doing something with it in the future. But that will remain to be seen.

They have an ad that is continuing to run in PP and had asked me to run it for them given the circumstances. My last conversation with Lawrence's son (Luke?) is that they are going to try to finish the jobs they have in line but remains to be seen if they'll be taking more jobs moving forward. Keep in mind this goes back to right before his dad passed and at that point Lawrence was not in the shop much at all anyways. Seems the son was doing all the work. He was very gracious and did thank the Parker community for the support.
