Goodbye Gerald, you are appreciated and admired by this Philadelphian. I was lucky enough to do business with you and Janet. You are what people think about when they think of hardworking AMERICANS, you were a gentleman, a hardworking dedicated husband. You accomplished more than most men can in 2 lifetimes. You deserve to be recognized celebrated respected admired and more. My only regret is I hooked into you later in life, I am so proud to say my wife Barbara and I had lunch with you and Janet, May you Rest in peace in the big sky my man.
Below is a poem by Rudyard Kipling, it actually speaks to who you were:
Gold is for the mistress
Silver for the Maid
Copper for the craftsman --Cunning in his trade
Good said the Baron sitting in his hall
But Iron Cold Iron is the Master of them All
-Gerald you were a MASTER
RIP Mike Rogers and the whole Gang at Allied Steel Bala Cynwyd pa
