The Virginia Dental Association's Office Building @ 7525 Staples Mill Road, in Richmond was destroyed by fire set off by a lightning strike during the severe weather yesterday. No one was hurt, fortunately, but the building is a total loss. Component One, along with all other components, will certainly do whatever is necessary, to assist in the re-building process. This site will be updated, as we learn more.
