Hi Lisa,

I agree, I was truly disappointed this morning with the results but I am proud our Detroit Region made it to the Finals. Your email to the staff with the history of the tarp touches home with myself as well – I remember that 1st trailer like it was yesterday, I often tell our employees about the day you and the Russo family came by to see it before it was picked up. One of the best memories I have ever had working at Verduyn Tarps and I cherish the fact I was able to be a part of that day and every day I see one of these Commemorative tarps driving down the highway.

Thank you and your staff for joining in on the fun and being a part of our Verduyn Tarps family!!!!!!

Not exactly what I wanted to wake up to this morning. I had two choice words but instead of repeating those, I’ll just say Congratulations Carisma!

Lots of fun and thank you everyone for supporting SteelPro these last few weeks. While I feel that little dot of a truck and trailer doesn’t hold a candle to our units; I concede the race.

Not sure if anyone knows how this design came to be – well. . . When Jack passed away in 2012, my brother Sal wanted to do a tribute for him. He came up with the idea of a tarp, and we began looking through photos. The four that ending up on the trailer represent our growth over the years. The first photo is what Wayne looked like when JJ (Jumpin Jack as we would call him) purchased what is now known as Wayne Industries, with JJ next to the first new pole. The second photo brings in the rail; the third the special equipment (and folks)we have. The final photo is what the building looks like today. With the strength, backbone, and work ethic of JJ and all your support and hard work over the years we are here today. I’ve included a photo of Mrs. Russo viewing the first tarp prototype.

Again – thank you everyone for participating and voting often. You’re all #1 to me!
