Longtime Atlanta resident, civic leader, volunteer and businessman Bradley Norton Currey Jr., died January 6 at home in Atlanta, Georgia. He was 91.
Currey was a member of Brown & Brown’s Board of Directors.
According to his obituary, Currey “loved civic and business work but also activities outside of work, such as playing with children and grandchildren, swimming, hiking, gardening and listening to music. He used to say he was the ‘luckiest guy that ever lived.’ Since the early 1980s, he has spent time with family in the north Georgia mountains, where he walked the woods; read Jack Tales and Pogo to beloved grandchildren, nieces and nephews; built roaring fires in the winter, and in the summertime took very long swims. He loved people, eschewed extravagance, cared about community and was generous with his time and resources.”
In a statement released by Brown & Brown, it said, “With great sadness, we announce the passing of Brown & Brown, Inc. Board of Directors member Bradley Currey, Jr.
“Brad was a businessman, a family man, a civic leader, a mentor and a friend to many. It would be impossible to capture in a single message what Brad meant to members of our team and the organization as a whole – so we won’t try. He was one of a kind. Please join us in honoring and remembering Brad. Rest easy, sir.”
