Long-time Timberline executive John Geffel has left Sage North America within the last week. Geffel joined Timberline in 1983 when it was an independent, publicly held company. He became SVP marketing in December 1999 and joined Sage when it acquired Timberline in 2004. Geffel had been general manager of the CRE division (construction, real estate) that markets Timberline's construction applications for Sage. Jodi Uecker-Rust, president of Sage Business Solutions,  is handling the duties until a new GM is hired.
