QUOTE "He was the President of Operations at R&L Electronics for over 40 years."

Died at age 55. 55-40 = 15. So he was President of the company when he was 14 years old????

 

If I recall the company was founded by Roger and his father, Larry, the L in R&L. Father and son business and all. Would make sense!
