He is the company’s first U.S. employee and helped launch the lifting equipment company’s North American headquarters 19 years ago. The LGH Board of Directors have promoted Pat’s son, Tony Fiscelli, to fill his father’s shoes.

Tony will assume the role of president of U.S.A. Operations, effective June 1, the anniversary of LGH’s 1990 entry into the U.S. market.
