Senior Vice President Ted Young Leaving Rapattoni Corporation
SIMI VALLEY, Calif., June 30, 2011 – Rapattoni Corporation (Rapattoni) announced today that Ted Young, senior vice president, has elected to leave Rapattoni at the end of June, 2011.
Andy Rapattoni, president and CEO of Rapattoni Corporation, said, “It is with regret that we accepted Ted’s resignation but we honor his desire to tackle another career and as Ted has said, ‘do something different’.”
Mr. Young, who started as a programmer with Rapattoni in 1980, has served on the company’s executive committee and assisted in overseeing the company’s operations. He was responsible for the development of four generations of Rapattoni’s association management software products, and he was the principle software architect behind Rapattoni Magic, a product which is used by approximately 250 real estate associations throughout the United States.
When tendering his resignation, Mr. Young stated, “During my long career, I have loved the people I’ve worked with, the customers I’ve served, and taken great pride in what I’ve done individually and what we together have accomplished as a company. I deeply appreciate the opportunities that were offered to me and how I was allowed to flourish. I’m thankful for the wonderful times we’ve enjoyed over the years and wish Andy, Niki, and the entire company the best of luck and success in the future. It is simply time to do something else and fulfill more of my dreams.”
Niki Rapattoni, chief administrative officer of Rapattoni Corporation, said, “We will miss Ted greatly and we send him off with love and many good thoughts for his future.” The company expressed their thanks and good wishes to Ted this week and culminated in a send-off under the trees in front of their facility in Simi Valley, California.
