6 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK Dermott Patrick Rogers was the ultimate rags to riches story, only he defined his riches as his family and friends. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather. Family was everything to Dermott and he passed away on February 26, 2021 at the age of 81 surrounded by his wife and children. For us, his life will go on when we remember his incredible optimism. He was famous for saying , “the sun will come up tomorrow.” His sun has set, but his family promised him we would live on in the spirit he lived, by living every day to the fullest and putting family first. Dermott loved his wife Dorothy so much that he would still call her his bride and they were married nearly 59 years. He had a unique way of loving each of his six children individually and always knew just when you needed him. Each of us has a story where he would just show up at our door and offer the support only a father can give. Dermott had 7 grandchildren, three girls and four boys. The girls he cherished as he did his own daughters and the boys he joked he would enroll in the Dermott P. Rogers School of Charm. He welcomed his son-in-laws and daughter-inlaws into the family, and treated each of them as if they were his own son or daughter. Dermott’s personality was so engaging that even his dog Kelly showed some of his traits. We take comfort in knowing that he is now reunited with his own siblings, John, Joan and Donald, who he cherished. Dermott lived like an Irishman and he was the life of the party, fun, boisterous, loved his wine and golfing with the gang. He spoke with what we called his “Irish whisper,” so you’d never have any trouble hearing him. He made friends wherever he went because he cared about people and lived by the mantra, “everybody has to be somebody.” You knew you could count on him and his generosity was endless. He is survived by his wife Dorothy Rogers along with six children and seven grandchildren. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Women In The Fastener Industry (WIFI) is excited to announce that Jan Morr, VP of WIFI, has accepted a position as the Regional Sales Manager at Würth House of Threads, an operating company of Würth Industry North America (WINA).
