West Fraser, Vancouver, B.C., Canada, this week announced that Gerry Miller, EVP, Finance and CFO will retire at the end of July. Miller joined the company in 1986 as corporate controller and has served West Fraser in a number of senior management roles in administration, operations, and finance.

Hank Ketcham, chairman, president and CEO noted that "Gerry has made an enormous contribution to West Fraser during his 25 years with us. He personifies the West Fraser culture-straightforward, consistent, hard-working with strong fundamental values."

Larry Hughes, SVP and secretary, will become VP, Finance and CFO upon Miller's retirement. Hughes joined the company in September 2007 following a 27-year career as a corporate and commercial lawyer.
