We are pleased to announce that Gordon Decker, Vice President of
Finance at Westelcom and Chazy Westport Communications, has been
promoted to the position of Chief Financial Officer (CFO). His
strong work ethic, dedication and authenticity has enabled him
to climb from company accountant, to manager, to Vice President
of Finance, than ultimately to this well earned promotion of
CFO. |

Decker, employed by Chazy Westport Communications for nearly 37 years,
has led the company through many successes.
CEO
James Forcier says, “Decker was thoroughly involved with many of our
biggest corporate decisions and changes, case in point, the founding of
Westelcom " , their competitive voice and data company, that now has
operated and matured successfully for 25 years. "Further," Forcier elaborates,
"when we acquired local internet companies, NorthNet and GISCO , he
was a key contributor in the development of our business and financial
planning allowing us to advantageously secure the deal.” Forcier sees
Decker as “a good thinker and listener who has, and will, guide the
company in a fiscally prudent manner.”
Mr.
Decker plans on making sure Chazy & Westport Communications and
subsidiaries are monetarily sound today and in future years. He
emphasizes that “if our company is financially sound, we will be able to
deliver products efficiently. Also, to effectively continue the quality
service we have today, the financial operations of our company must
be healthy and strategic.”
In
the past Gordon has been actively involved on the Westport Central
School Board and Investment Clubs. He has served as Treasurer of the
Westport Fire District since 1993. When he’s not devoting himself to the
company and community you can usually find him boating,
fishing or hunting. He most enjoys spending time with his children
Christine and Andrew; 3 grandchildren; and his wife Nancy; while
absorbing the scenic views of Lake Champlain from his Adirondack home.
