The Loss of a Leader

Posted January 13th, 2009 by Gena Rotstein

Mr. Daryl "Doc" Seaman passed away on Sunday. Mr. Seaman brought the NHL to Calgary - THE FLAMES. But he did more Daryl K. than that - he put his community first, leading by example, as a businessman and a philanthropist.

In today's Calgary Herald there is an article that shares part of Doc's story. Enjoy the read and be inspired to do something for your community in his memory.

Dexterity Consulting will be making a donation in his memory to the Seaman Family Septic Shock Research Fund. If you would like to join with us in supporting this Fund please drop me an or you can donate directly through The Calgary Foundation.
