Samson Marketing announces the upcoming retirement of Vice President of Operations Larry Cryan, after over 20 years in the position.
In early May, Doug Jermyn will rejoin Samson to assume the Vice President of Operations role.

All of us at Samson Marketing wish him and his family all the best.”
Jermyn was previously with both Universal Furniture and Legacy Classic | Modern, and has most recently been with Theodore Alexander USA in the role of Vice President-Operations.
“I had the privilege of working with Doug Jermyn when I started my career with Universal Furniture 20 years ago, as well as working closely with him at Theodore Alexander for 8 years,” said Neill Robinson, chief executive officer of Legacy Classic | Modern, one of the companies in the Samson corporate portfolio. “Doug’s experience, professionalism and work ethic will be great assets for Samson Marketing, and we all welcome him back.”
