more sublime — and he has
done many quiet acts of kind-
ness."
The Holocaust Memorial Cen-
ter recently cited Mr. Trunsky
as the first docent to guide 1,000
tours through the facility since
it opened in 1984. According to
the HMC's Rabbi Charles
Rosenzveig, Mr. Trunsky has
earned a reputation among the
guides for maintaining his com-
posure and focus.
On a recent tour, a young
man looks distracted and tries
to flirt with another student.
Across the way, a young woman
hasn't taken her eyes off Mr.
Trunsky since the tour began
and is steadily losing her battle
not to cry.
"I think he's had a significant
impact on the tours," says Rab-
bi Rosenzveig. "He's particular-
ly adept at areas of Jewish
history."
Mr. Trunksy has no inten-
tions of slowing the pace of his
volunteer schedule. Rodger
Trunsky's steadily increasing
role in Crown Steel's operation
creates more time for Mr. Trun-
sky to pursue additional phil-
anthropic endeavors.
Rodger brings a new array of
general entrepreneurial skills
to the business to compliment
his inherited knowledge and
good family business name, says
Mr. Trunsky. Although profits
have grown steadily under
Rodger's watch, he is careful to
emulate the examples set by his
father.
"I think the measure of my
dad is more than 50 years in the
rail business. I think it's more
in the business of giving for 50
years because it's much harder,"
says Rodger. ❑

century in the rail industry, he
has observed the American steel
rail market dry up and the con-
solidation from over 30 class 1
railroads to five, says Dr. Taylor.
Since the demise of Bethlehem
Steel and Colorado Steel and
Iron, Mr. Trunsky imports most
of his product from Japan, Ko-
rea, Canada and Luxembourg.
Although he followed his fa-
ther into the railroad field, Mr.
Trunsky chose a path of depar-
ture from the corporate culture
prevalent among class 1 rail-
roads to one where he felt free
to express his own values. The
primary upside to owning
Crown Steel Rail to Mr. Trun-
sky is the flexibility to accom-
modate his schedule of volunteer
activities.
Mr. Trunsky says volun-
teerism has helped him cope
with memories of an icy rela-
tionship with his step-mother
and callous, workaholic father.
Recognition, says Mr. Trunsky,
and a sense of connection to oth-
ers involved in his volunteer ac-
tivities inspires him to pursue
philanthropic projects with as
much enthusiasm as he does
steel rail.
Temple Israel's House Minyan
Committee was formed to ensure
mourners observing shiva would
have access to a minyan. Be-
tween 1964 and 1981, Mr. Trun-
sky committed three to four
evenings per week to spear-
heading the group and comfort-
ing bereaved members of Temple
Israel's congregation.
"Imagine a man at the age of
70 who volunteers to be an ush-
er at services," says Rabbi M.
Robert Syme of Temple Israel.
"The lives of great men remind
us we can make our own lives
