Pamplin Communications president Gary Randall retires

Gary Randall, 60, one of the co-founders of Pamplin Communications Corp., will retire April 11 to focus on other projects.

He has been president of Pamplin Communications for the past eight years.

Paul Scott, vice president of Pamplin Distribution, the distributing division for the music company, is a front-runner to replace Randall.

In 1993, Randall and Robert Pamplin Jr. started the company with the purchase of the retail chain, Christian Supply Center Inc. The partners have since added Pamplin Music Company, Pamplin Entertainment and Pamplin Broadcasting Inc. More recently, the company launched The Portland Tribune newspaper and purchased Community Newspapers Inc., a chain of 18 suburban newspapers. Pamplin also owns six radio stations across the West.

Randall has been "an integral part of the development and growth of the company," Pamplin said.

Randall, an ordained minister, was also host of a Christian talk show on KOIN-TV from 1978 to 1990 and produced a children's TV series. The "Gary Randall Program" was distributed to 20 other cities in the United States.
