Re: Donald Pomeranz

Good morning Jeffrey,

I hope you don't mind my emailin= you with a small problem I am having. We haven't put

anything=C24Hogether as of yet but I do hope something will take place.=C240 What is troubling me is my young associate, Whitney Gray.

I have withheld fr=m him any mention of our conversations and the possible transition.=C2 While I have not settled any long term arrangement with Whitney he h=s become important in that I truly like the young guy and he has begun to =njoy working here and being in St. Thomas. He asked me the other day=if he should give up working in St. John completely and plan to be full ti=e here.

I do n=t want to pull the rug out from him unless absolutely necessary and I don&=39;t want to blind side him should that occur but I can't tell him to =uit another position and then tell him there's no place for him in my =ractice at the end of summer or something of that sort.

What I'm asking is that shoul= we reach an agreement to transition my practice with you would there rema=n a place for Whitney? If so I would like to tell him in strictest c=nfidence about future plans that may take place. If you decide that =here will be no place for him then I must tell him much sooner than later.=C2.

If we n=ed to talk about this please do not hesitate to call me.

Thanks, Donald
