yea i am waiting to here from the president of the company b/c the customer servive rep. didn't really know much about the stocks. Here are the two reponses from 2 emails i sent them.
Why else would this stock still be trading after 6 years.
Wouldn't they have erased the symbol by now? I believe their was r/m here. time will tell but looks good. $$$$$$

1st reponse
I think you are asking about the Gerald Stephenson Company. That company is no longer in business. We are now Royer's Flowers & Gifts and do not sell stock options. Please let me know if I may assist you in any other matter. Thank you and have a pleasant day.

Diane,
Customer Service

2nd reponse
I forwarded your email to the president of our company. I'm sure you will be hearing from him shortly. Thank you.

Diane,

If that's the case we need something to back it up.
Has anyone heard anything from the company?

I wil call tm and see what I find out.
I'm in with a starter position.

i think there was a r/m here, why else would it still be trading 6 years later? Royer's Flowers & Gifts either bought or merged with the Gerald Stephenson Company.

I think you are asking about the Gerald Stephenson Company. That company is no longer in business. We are now Royer's Flowers & Gifts

Our History Royer's flowers & gifts

Hannah Royer grew beautiful
African violets on the windowsill
of her home. In 1937, she began to
sell these plants at a local garment factory and area farmer's markets in order to augment the family's income. As interest grew in Hannah's plants, so did the business...



Over the next several years, used greenhouses were acquired to grow even more flowers. This was a true family business with Hannah's husband, Lester working in the greenhouses and their three children working right along-side them with various duties.

This fledgling enterprise grew through increased sales at area farmers markets and through wholesale of the flowers and plants to other retail florists in Lebanon and Lancaster County. As the retail flower business continued to grow, Lester retired from his teaching job to develop their retail flower venture by managing the greenhouses. Around 1945, following numerous requests for cut flowers, the decision was made to convert the two-car garage into a flower shop. The first flower shop was in operation! In these early days, Hannah did it all except deliveries which Kenneth Royer, one of her sons, did after school. The business grew for Hannah because she always worked to say yes to her customers. On several occasions, customers asked for special funeral arrangements to be made in shapes of horses or deer, and Hannah would always say yes, sometimes staying up all night
to make the arrangement "just right".

That legacy lives on today at Royer's flowers & gifts. We are always looking for ways to say yes to our customers' special requests and needs. Our Lebanon store still has the original two-car garage as
part of the structure of the building to constantly remind us of our heritage. Within one generation and under the management of
Kenneth Royer, Royer's flowers & gifts has grown to become one of the largest retail florists in the country. In the early 1980's, Ken Royer's sons started to join him in the family business. Currently, Ken Royer is Chairman of the Board, Gregory Royer is President & CEO and Thomas Royer is Sr.Vice President & COO and Michael Royer manages the wholesale department. Royer's flowers & gifts currently has 15 retail locations serving Berks, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, and York counties in South Central Pennsylvania with over 300 employees.

I know of this company. there is a Royers down the steet from me .Its hard to believe they are a publicly traded company. If ya me too i could look into stopping in and find more DD on this.. Seems like a mom/pop business ,really surprises me

Not sure what's going on here, but seems a viable business, has been trading with cancelled shares?
