Moesly and Bill Potter were at odds with each other. "get out of my way old man . . . this is my company now"

I enjoyed reading the article very much and have a great respect for Moesly's career. I came away, however, with the same gut as indicated above. Add that to the comment about the financial troubles and CFO turnover, I can see how difficult an environment in must have been.
Moesly made money due to his excellent reputation, experience, his wife Jeanne, he owned the company and real estate with no dept and overpaid his staff. I'll bet he was a pretty cool guy to work for, too. I doubt Mr. Potter had any of those advantages. I don't know about the wife thing, but I'll bet Jeanne didn't stick around long.
And the plot thickens...
