I vaguely recall hearing that his son had no interest in running the company but that was also years ago. Hopefully whoever is set to take over when he goes shares his exact same views on keeping the company private.

Only time will tell.

I think if he really wants that plan to shake out he needs to transition ownership while he's alive. Just dumping it on them with no discussion, no cultural adjustment and no preparation time will cause a lot of problems.
