I think you are right - J.I. Rodale died (I think I remember it was some sort of car accident that should have never happened) and they were totally unprepared to continue his work. I know they brought an outsider in and it could well have been who you remember.
I too remember reading the new editor article - It was a sad one - but don’t remember all the details.
