“Make the rules, win the game.” – Wayne Curry
On behalf of the Prince George’s County Social Innovation Fund, we offer sincere condolences to the family of Mr. Wayne K. Curry and to the residents of Prince George’s County, Maryland. Mr. Curry’s life and legacy in leadership is an inspiration to us all and especially to young Prince George’s County residents. |
| | | | | | | | | | | | As County Executive, he gained the reputation of ‘trailblazer’; and to many up and coming professionals the title was mentor, coach, and friend. During a private ‘fireside chat’ last fall, Mr. Curry shared his story -- completely unfiltered -- with members of the Forty UNDER 40 Honorees with hopes of encouraging a new crop of leaders to commit to Prince George’s County and “to continue to pursue the impossible”. We will always remember his favorite Frederick Douglas quote from that evening, “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has, it never will.”
His passing is a reminder to us all that with our limited time on this earth, we have to make it count!
With sincere condolences,
Prince George’s County Social Innovation Fund (PGCSIF) |
