Lorraine Garvey embodied many of the personal attributes and characteristics I admire most.
Lorraine was a powerful executive and marketer par excellence with gritty New Englander dedication and an intense work ethic. Her broad vision, creativity and commitment enabled her to discover and develop business opportunities, such as opening the U.S. market for German design firm Fredrich Stahl.
It was while she was in this capacity that I first met Lorraine. And, like others who knew her, I quickly recognized her as the natural leader she was, at once commanding and genial. She was the type of boss people like to work for, issuing an air of stalwart resolution and correlative achievement while unaffectedly and authentically caring for her friends and colleagues. She was a motivator who demanded excellence from her colleagues more for their benefit than her own.
She was one of the most pleasant people in the business and among the first I was always most happy to catch up with at trade shows and events. Her grandchildren came along at the same time as my children, and each time we met we shared thoughts on our love for our families.
It was deeply grieving when we first learned that she had cancer. But as worried as she must have been, she characteristically maintained her sense of humor and perspective. I'm glad and proud to say I learned a lot about personal character from Lorraine. You'll find many others who will say the same.
