Just heard Mr. John Slawson (forgive spelling), who was President of Horton has resigned. They also lost Dave Cole recently. I really liked both of them. Hope all is OK at Horton. Nice unit and I did sell them for awhile.

That's interesting news Dave went to Medix which is shocking to me, but then again money talks.
Then again sometimes you just need to change scenery.
From what I've heard they have the numbers to be in the positive so I think they are OK, wonder if
pressure is on from above to increase sales, and or costs.

Wow! I just took a tour of Horton last month, and John was our guide, he was a SUPER personable, very classy guy. Didn't he take a job as a higher up with Horton's parent company or something? I thought that's what they were telling us...
Trav!

I hope he did. He was a great guy. Like I said I sold Horton for awhile so was at the factory a good bit. He was as you said an excellent tour guide and very customer focused.

Too bad but it happens in all industries. He was a good down to earth person.
