Do you think we should start calling Bob "St. Francis" :)

Where did the name: DeSales Trading originate from?
The founder of DeSales Trading Company, Wm. T. "Bud" Murray was a good Roman Catholic. He attended Northeast Catholic High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. While at Northeast Catholic High Bud learned about the Roman Catholic saint, St. Francis DeSales. Bud later attended the seminary to study to become a Catholic priest. The seminary was directed by, The Oblates of St. Francis DeSales. After three years of the seminary Bud decided a religious vocation was not for him. Bud then entered into the U.S. Navy and married his fiancée, Noel Bussey, at the church of St. Francis DeSales in Oakland, California.
Upon the start of Bud's textile venture he knew he was going to need a lot of patience and humility to get his project off and running. It just happened that the patron saint of patience is St. Francis DeSales - hence DeSales Trading Company.
