Stylianos Philippides

Stelly was like a brother to me. We at times fought like brothers but we both knew that we had each other's backs. He instilled in me business sense that I continue to use today. I worked for him for over 27 years. He stood with me through some very difficult personal issues and always had an encouraging word of advise or just was willing to listen. God bless you Stelly and may you rest in peaceful slumber.

Stelly was more than a boss to me, He was like a brother. At times we fought like brothers, but we always knew that we had each other's backs. Stelly instilled many of the business attributes in me that I use and quote today and I will always remember that he stood by me when I was going through some very difficult times in my personal life. God Bless you Stelly!

Stella interviewed me for the fitter apprentice position at PIW in 1986 which I worked for about 1 year through COOP. 33 years later I came back and He remembered who I was. He always treated me with respect. I never forgot that. God Speed Stelly

I worked in the office at Penn Iron for 8 years. And my Mother before me. So many fond memories of Stelly & his kindness to us both. My sincere Sympathy to his family.

I am saddened to read of STELLY's passing. He was a lovely and fine person. I send my condolences to STELLY's family, which I know he loved very much. Very truly, Joel Knoblauch

Nick, your Dad was a very genuine man that I had a strong affection for because of that " down to earth " honesty. I will never forget his being ejected from the Skuylkill Valley tournament for yelling at the umpire. An all time classic moment.
