Farah and El Paso Museum of History Team Up for Great Exhibit.

T he El Paso Museum of History presented a photographic and video slide presentation of one major portion of the El Paso textile/garment industries historic tapestry. Although Willie Farah and his wife are not with us now; Jimmy, Kenny and Robert Farah were all present to meet and greet many former employees and friends.

In addition to the exhibit the Farah family provided a dinner reception for nearly three hundred guests outside on the patio of the museum. There it was a reunion of many fellow workers who had not seen each other since the plant closed nearly two decades ago.
