I understand that his name starts with D and that he wears No. 3 but he needs to get a new nickname. |
I'm so glad that Fred's music is getting the recognition it deserves, and that all of the effort that went into creating this tribute has been so rewarded. Even if we hadn't been honored, it's enough for me to know that the Rogers family and his non-profit organization are so supportive. |

Many people have asked me what will happen to the company now that Mel is gone. Mel's death does not cause a change in our operation or philosophy. Even though Mel owned the majority of the stock in Eel River Sawmills, there is a plan in place that will transfer the majority of the voting stock to the employees over time. The Mel and Grace McLean Foundation now owns Mel's shares. Eventually, some company shares owned by the Foundation will have to be sold to meet certain regulatory requirements. We have ample time to accomplish this. |
