Otto Miller Passes - What is the status of WLIE

I read the other day that Otto Miller, the head of Principle Broadcasting, passed recently. First, of course, may he rest in peace.

Mr. Miller was reported to have purchased WLIE but I was unable to find anything about that sale in the FCC database. It still indicates that Stuart Henry and Long Island Multimedia are the station owners. The only thing I did find was a Non-Consummation Filing in early April 2007. Was that filing about the failed Relevant Radio purchase or the Principle Broadcasting purchase? Does anyone know who owns WLIE today?
 
I'm sure Stu doesn't think it's funny, but it is starting to seem like he will never be able to get rid of 540am!

First, he spends a lot of the family money doing local talk after dumping MOYL, skips past the idea of doing oldies and put on Business Talk Radio, which at least paid him to air their crap - I mean fine programming. He gets a fish on the line with the Catholics, after the possible agreement Stu had with BTR (selling them the station) times out. The Catholics (Relevent) blow up the deal soon after. Otto Miller shows up, offers 14m and LMAs the station to run Spanish language whatever on 540AM. Shortly after that, Miller suffers the big one and leaves a new wife his widow. After all this, Stu Henry seems to STILL hold the license for WLIE.
