1988

Second generation:

Karl Voss passed away unexpectedly, leaving much uncertainty for the future of Voss.  Karl’s daughter Rita Voss Kammerer assumed majority ownership of the company and the role as President.  Rita’s husband, Tom Kammerer, took over running the daily operations as General Manager.  Tom & Rita were determined to maintain Karl’s legacy and continue business as usual, operating under the fundamental values that Karl established.  Doubts about the future of Voss without Karl Voss quickly became settled as the company successfully continued on without Karl.
