Alro Mourns the Loss of Co-Founder Robert Glick

Alro Steel Corporation was saddened by the unexpected passing of Robert Glick, former chairman of Glick Iron & Metal Company and co-founder and vice president of Alro Steel on November 8, 2001.

Robert, 84, resided in Pompano Beach, Florida & Jackson, Michigan. His father, Louis, founded Glick Iron & Metal.

Robert is survived by his widow, Rose; a brother, Al; a daughter, Sue Weber; and three sons, Carl, Barry and Gary Glick.

The son of a scrap dealer and brother of current Alro Chairman and CEO Al Glick, Robert played an important part in the on-going success of Alro Steel.

"I would have never started Alro without Bob's input," said Al Glick. "Although he worked his entire life at Glick Iron and Metal, he always had an integral role at Alro. He gave 53 years' dedication to this company and a lifetime to me. You couldn't ask for a better brother."
