b'THE COMSTAR SUPPLY STORYThe Call ThatLed to a CallingIt started with a phone call, but it wasnt good news. Nearly halfway through the first semester of Chad Punchards sophomore year at the University of Pittsburgh, he received a call that would change the course of his life. It was his mother, Gwen, on the phone, calling to say that hisdad had been diagnosed with cancer. She told her son that he needed to come home and help with the family business that was barely a year old. So much time and money, everything the family possessed, had been invested into this venture. The call was one of the hardest conversations Chad would ever have, yet little did he know, his own personal calling, would be a result of it. p Chad and EarlTHE COMSTAR SUPPLY STORY5'
