Lee Kraft, along with three other prominent Nashville businessmen, will be honored at the eighth annual “Father of the Year” awards dinner on Saturday, June 19, at 6:00 p.m. at the Hilton Hotel- Downtown Nashville to benefit the American Diabetes Association.
Produced in partnership with the Father’s Day Council, the dinner will recognize four area fathers who have demonstrated the ability to balance their personal and professional lives while serving as outstanding role models in their respective communities.
The honorees are: Lee Kraft, CPA and Member, KraftCPAs; Robert Doochin, President and CEO, American Paper & Twine Co; David Levy, President, Levy’s Clothier for Men & Women; and Bernie Sherry, President and CEO, Baptist Hospital.
“I can’t think of four men more deserving of such high recognition than this year’s honorees,” said Charles Sprintz, co-chairman of the Middle Tennessee Father’s Day Advisory Council. “In today’s fast-paced world, it is quite a challenge for many fathers to balance their personal and professional time and commitments. Each of these men manages to excel professionally and give back to the community while never losing sight of his top priority, being a loving and devoted father.”
The four honorees display passion in every aspect of their lives, and each has worked hard to establish himself both professionally and in the community.

Since it began its partnership with the American Diabetes Association in 2000, the National Father’s Day Council has generated in excess of $10 million from Father’s Day awards events.
