The Board of Pensions of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has appointed Vivian D. Wesson as Executive Vice President and General Counsel. The appointment of Wesson, most recently Chief Intellectual Property Counsel for Marsh McLennan, forwards the agency’s commitment to providing strength and stability in support of the changing Church.
John Detterick, who for eight years led the General Assembly Council (now the Presbyterian Mission Agency) and before that the Board of Pensions for five years, died Tuesday at age 80 at his home in Denver after a long and courageous battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his loving wife and four children.
