A Salute to Alan Sakry

A long time ago in an office far, far away, I worked with a man who was funny and had a lot going for him. Read this from the pages of the Elk River Star News on reflections of last year.

Alan Sakry, the president of the Elk River Area Chamber of Commerce, was one of 45 individuals to jump into Lake Orono this past winter at the first Shiver Elk River celebration. The event raised more than $10,000 for organizations. The second annual event is being planned for Feb. 25, 2012.


Now Alan is very seriously ill. And, we are all hoping for the best. But, for the life of me, I can't think of too many people who would do this. And, he was always there for his clients, a good time, his family, his co-workers and the agents and brokers who worked with him because of his caring and attitude.

Here is a link to his Caring Bridge site. If you can say a prayer for his family and his recovery, I know it would be heard and appreciated.
