Lumber, Eugene, Or., died March 24,1991, in Newport Beach, Ca.

Mr. Voelzke spent 43 years in the business, working for Florence & Crenshaw, Smith-Robbins Lumber, Flintridge Lumber Sales and others before opening a Huntington Beach, Ca., office for Consolidated three years ago.

RIGHT ON!

As a subscriber to The Merchant Magazinefor more than 25 years, I wanted to take this time to thank you for producing such an excellent and professional magazine. I find the stories short and to the point, and I learn something new from every issue. Unlike with so many other lumber trade magazines, I can honestly say that I read The Merchant Magazine from cover to cover every month. And as a sales tool, the news that you report is always timely. Keep up the good work!
