“We are extremely fortunate to have a qualified new president coming from our own ranks,” said Holland.  “Marc has been with LifePlans since its inception over 15 years ago and is well known and respected by our customers.  He is a known throughout the industry as an expert on Long-Term Care.  We are also fortunate that Don will be continuing on LifePlans Board and will help with the transition.  I have high expectations for the Company going forward.”
