STACIA ALYEA EXCELLENCE IN LEADERSHIP AWARD

In the annals of Leadership Hancock County’s history, one name shines brightly—a beacon of inspiration and dedication that continues to illuminate the path for leaders of tomorrow. Stacia Alyea, a member of the inaugural class in 1996, embodied the very essence of leadership, leaving an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing her.


Stacia was not just a participant in the program; she was a pillar of strength and commitment, deeply respected by her classmates for her unwavering dedication to her community, her family, and her career as a member of the Shelby County Sheriff’s Department.


Tragically, in April 1996, as her year in Leadership Hancock County drew to a close, Stacia’s life was cut short in the line of duty—a devastating loss that reverberated throughout the community. Yet, even in the face of such tragedy, Stacia’s legacy of service and sacrifice endured.


Just the week prior, Stacia had been honored by Mothers Against Drunk Driving for her tireless efforts in combating drunken driving—a testament to her unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.


In her memory, Stacia’s Leadership class came together to create the Excellence in Leadership Award—a fitting tribute to a woman who exemplified the very best of leadership qualities. Since its inception in 1997, this annual award has recognized individuals who embody the spirit of Stacia—those who demonstrate a balanced commitment to community, home, and work; a fervent passion for improving the world around them; and unwavering integrity, dedication, candor, and compassion.


Yet, perhaps the most poignant aspect of this award is not the accolades it bestows, but the manner in which it is bestowed—through the votes of fellow class members. For it is they who intimately understand the essence of true leadership, and it is they who honor Stacia’s memory with each passing year.


In a world often fraught with challenges and uncertainties, Stacia Alyea’s legacy serves as a beacon of hope—a reminder that, even in the darkest of times, the light of leadership shines brightest when fueled by integrity, compassion, and a steadfast commitment to the betterment of all.


May we all strive to embody the spirit of Stacia, and may her memory continue to inspire generations of leaders to come.
