History
Known to many as The Glass Expert and Historian, John Rossi was born on October 24, 1924 in Vineland. After graduating from Elon University, John worked as as a chemist at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard.
After World War II he worked at chemical and glass companies while pursuing an additional degree in mechanical engineering. Ultimately, he became chief engineer/plant manager at Wilmad Glass where he dreamed of starting his own business.
In February 1962, John, Walter Cherniak and two silent partners opened Precision Electronic Glass. By 1988, John had bought out his parnters. He and his sons have run the business since that time.
