  (The Resignation of Jerry Schilling) ©
  ...
  We managed to accomplish some wonderful things before Jerry resigned such as "The Expert Series" where an industry professional is brought in to speaker on different topics one of them was the president of Leiber and Stoller publishing. We also had a town hall meeting which was very successful and brought out many musicians to voice their opinions as to what should be done to enhance Memphis music. "Musicians Healthcare" helped to provide healthcare benefits for several musicians as well as "Musicians Advisory Council" which consisted of some of the local musicians to discuss the happening in the day-to-day Memphis Music scene.
  
  Memphis & Shelby County Music commission is one of the vehicles that has shown the Memphis musicians how much they are valued in Memphis and Jerry was very instrumental in doing that; but now it's time to let the nation know what great musicians we have in Memphis.
  
  Jerry chose to resign rather than fight and have any further dissention and I applaud him for that. Below is a copy of the official resignation:
  
  MEDIA ADVISORY For Immediate Release
  
  Memphis, TN (September 4, 2002) -- Jerry Schilling, President and CEO of the Memphis and Shelby County Music Commission announced his resignation today to members of the Commission. In his prepared statement, Schilling said, "I would like to thank all of Memphis for the opportunity to represent this great city's music both past and present, and most of all to the music community for their trust and support.
  ...
  Jerry will be missed.
