Glen Ives
Leadership Southern Maryland presented its Heritage Awards last month honoring three individuals who embody the organization’s three tenets – Leadership, Service, and Mentoring.
Glen Ives, Sabre Group VP, was the St. Mary’s County recipient. Mr. Sabre served as CO of NAS: Patuxent River.
“His high regard for the people that worked with him and the war-fighters they support is his legacy at Pax, and carries forward to his current role as Group Vice President of Sabre Systems,” said LSM Board of Directors president Bert Johnston.
Mr. Ives was described as embracing the community and the donation of his time and leadership skills recognized by the numerous boards he serves including the Southern Maryland Navy Alliance, The Patuxent Partnership, Annmarie Garden’s Ann’s Circle, Inc., College of Southern Maryland Foundation and the Board of Trustees for St. Mary’s College of Maryland. Mr. Ives is also Honorary Chairman of the United Way, Christmas in April and the Special Olympics.
“Glen Ives is a man who truly embodies leadership and service through his passion for his country and the community where he lives,” Mr. Johnston said.
“I feel kind of guilty getting recognized for something that I completely enjoy doing,” Mr. Ives said.
For Calvert County, the group commended Harriet Yaffe, Executive Director of the ARC of Southern Maryland.
Since 1998, Ms. Yaffe has worked to effectively create a positive impact for children and adults in the region with intellectual and developmental disabilities through her work with the ARC, while growing the organization to the success it is today.
Charles County recipient, Evelyn “Evie” Hungerford, was recognized for her willingness to commit her time, talent and contagious energy to many important areas in our community. Frequently sought as a key player on a variety of boards, Ms. Hungerford has garnered a reputation as a “roll your sleeves up” person with a strong will to succeed, said Vogel, who presented the award.
She is the president and owner of Hungerford Associates Consulting and involved with the Charles County Chamber of Commerce. “I absolutely did not expect this … I was just astonished to receive this award,” she said
