Ernie and Alisa Kretzmer had the wisdom and interest to ensure that Sarasota Opera, an organization that played an important role in their own lives, is supported now and for future generations. They encourage all of our opera patrons to reflect on what Sarasota Opera means to you and to the Sarasota community, and to consider making a gift in your estate plans.
