Governor Mary Fallin today released the following statement regarding the death of Ray Ackerman:
“Ray Ackerman will always be remembered for his civic leadership, unique business savvy and service to his country while serving in the Navy for 35 years.
His contributions went beyond starting the largest and oldest advertising agency in Oklahoma, Ackerman dedicated his life to promoting Oklahoma City.
His work with the Oklahoma River will be his lasting legacy and now with a statue recognizing his longtime advocacy will allow his work to live on forever.
My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his family in their time of grief.”
