So there are reliable sources saying that a guy named Terry or "TD" Taylor was a head of the facility as it neared its end; but I can't find anything other than the obit that says he was the final head of the facility at the time it closed.
I'm leaving this comment in the hopes that it will spark something someone else can follow up on. A few things to bear in mind for anyone else who wants to run on this:
I'm giving up, but this may help someone else (maybe someone with a newspapers.com subscription) find it.
