Good that he died. Before his company died.

I wonder if he was cognizant about the recent developments, hope not.

There used to be a chain of department stores in Columbus, Ohio during the 70’s called Lazarus. Their main competition was a store called The Union. On level with Macy’s of today. Maybe he was a distant relation of that business family.

These things are linked.
Like people dying around Christmas or anniversaries very ill and very old people frequently choose a moent of passage.
RIP and sorry about your company. You were a part of 3 generations (Boomer parents, Gen X kids/parents and Millennial kids).
Pretty darn good.

Hmm, did they have a large prepaid key man insurance policy on him left over from his days in charge? Was his sudden death a financial benefit to anyone?

"He was the father of the toy business"
Please. He was a retailer, and a good one. Members of my family ran one of the largest toy inventors, manufacturers and marketers the world has ever seen. Lazarus said "yes," sure, but to products that were already envisioned, created, born, packaged, tested, and in many cases truly and undeniably amazing creations.
