Leach International North America Names Mark Thek Acting President
BUENA PARK, Calif. -- Mark R. Thek has been appointed acting president of Leach International North America, a division of Leach International Corporation, according to Robert W. Hawkey, president, Leach International Corporation. Thek replaces Ernest Johnson, who resigned to pursue other business opportunities. Johnson has held the position of president since April 1997. "Ernie has made many valuable contributions to Leach International North America during his tenure. His leadership and management expertise will be missed," comments Hawkey.

During his time at Leach International North America, he has demonstrated an ability to successfully meet the most challenging situations," Hawkey says.
