Mayor Stephen T. Nero used his mayoral remarks to present a ceremonial key to Frank J. Rogers Jr., who the mayor said is celebrating his 90th birthday. Nero read a proclamation honoring Rogers' military service and family contributions: "I, Stephen t Nero, mayor of Westmont, wish to honor a for a long life full of love, prosperity, and his part in the creation of our family," and invited family for a group photograph and a photo-wall unveiling that features past mayors.
