I too will miss Jerry, I think he's done a lot for Lionel, I am a bit shocked, but I guess 10 years is a good term for a CEO; Dick Kughn was at Lionel for 9-10 years? Is Howard Hitchcock the new CEO or just temporary?
I think the most we can do besides wish Jerry well, is just wait and see and hope for the best.
edit: sorry 10, not 14 years
