On April 30, Alliance officially renamed our multipurpose room at Midtown Central the Edwin “Doc Broccoli” Krales Multipurpose Room, in honor of our longtime nutritionist. “Doc Broccoli” or “Doc Broc” was beloved by participants, many of whom he had worked with for several decades, and many spoke about the positive impact he had had on their lives. The multipurpose room is where we serve over 10,000 fresh meals every year to participants, many of whom attend our weekly nutrition classes.
Shortly after Doc Broc passed last summer, our agency held a celebration of his life with his family, who were on hand last week for the room dedication and shared wonderful memories of the man who helped hundreds of people with chronic conditions lead healthier lives by balancing their diets.
