A message on the passing of Baltimore entrepreneur Pava LaPere

Wendy Bolger, founding director of the Simon Center on Innovation & Entrepreneurship at Â鶹¾«Ñ¡, issued this statement on the death of Pava LaPere:

"The Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ community is deeply saddened to learn of the loss of Ecomap CEO, Pava LaPere. Ms. LaPere served on the newly established advisory board for the Simon Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship. She was a phenomenally accomplished CEO and innovator, and an inspiration and a friend to so many. She always led with values first, and was deeply committed to Baltimore, and the promises of technology and entrepreneurship for all. Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ joins the communities Ms. LaPere built at Ecomap and across the city in grieving the loss of a true star. She and her family are in our prayers."

LaPere will be the Mass intention at the 11 a.m. Mass on Sunday, Oct. 8, in Alumni Memorial Chapel.
