Treasures of Sierra Madre by Jan Reed
Chris and Halcyon Koerber (click photo to enlarge) came to Sierra Madre in July, 1997, and were immediately smitten by the town.
"We knew there was something wonderful about this town," they remembered, and that was just before they joined in the Sierra Madre spirit of volunteering.
HALCYON: Civic Club (former president), Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, member of Friends of the Library (mostly book sales), small group leader at Church of the Ascension, working on the Rose Float, Dickens Village Committee for the Chamber of Commerce, formerly docent chair of the Wistaria Festival, continues to assist current docent chair and assist with docents at the annual Wistaria Festival.
CHRIS: Development Committee of Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy, chairman of Development Committee for Sierra Madre Community Foundation, formerly assistant Scoutmaster of BSA Troop 4 in Pasadena, assistant girls' softball coach, now assists (upcoming) Eagle Scouts.
Chris was born in Ohio and has a Bachelor of Science degree from Kent State University. He received his CFP designation in 1993. His job working for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in plant protection brought him to California, then he joined New Century Insurance Services, Inc. in 1991, became a partner in 1998, and was named vice president, Health and Employee Benefits.
About when he came to California, Halcyon was operations manager of an import freight company, and they met, were married in 1984.
Halcyon was born in Santa Ana (CA) "while they still had orange groves." She received her Bachelor of Arts degree in art history from Cal State Long Beach before entering the job market.
Halcyon said, "The more you participate as a volunteer the more fun you have."
The Koerbers have two children: Daniel, who is a senior at the University of Dayton (Ohio), and Katie, who attends Hillsdale College in Michigan. |
