This is probably not the right place for this but I figured more people look here.........So I just got an email from Jerry Roller saying he wanted me to look at the picture of some steel players and wanted to know if I recognized any of them and to just click on the link and then let him know. Please do not do this. I am posting to make sure everyone is aware of this. thanks Winston May

Unless I’m sadly mistaken, Jerry Roller passed away a year ago.

I have gotten Facebook friend requests from people who have been dead for two years or more! This crooked world never ceases to amaze me!

To add to the confusion Jerry's son Terry is a forum guy.

Even more confusing, isn't Terry using Jerry's forum account (can't remember). I can't believe it's been almost a year since Jerry passed. I miss him.

I also have been getting emails from Jerry Roller, even after his passing. He was still alive when I got the first couple. I contacted him via the forum and let him know that I got a very suspicious email from an someone using his name. All he said was, "I don't know what to do about that". Still get them.
