Thank you for the invite. It is a pleasure to join in on such a wonderful ceremony
Oh my gosh! This is so exciting and so well-deserved. I am honored to be a part of this.
Mr. HInton has simply both exipliflied and exhibited the courage, drive, compassion, perseverance and tenacity required to be a true and quentisential change agent in not only his own family but most impressively his entire community. He has therefore earned the the well deserved honor of being deemed a pilar of his community as he has significantly touched, symbolized, inspired, and motivated not soley just the community at large but most importantly has provided hope to a vastly targeted, vulnerable and historically hopeless culture of young people of color by demonstrsting that there aren’t any shortcuts to success and that all things are possible through hard work and dedication. That said; I’m exceptionally proud of you cousin!!
This is outstanding news and a well-deserved honor! Thank you for the invitation… I wouldn’t miss it!
Congrats, George!

Congratulations! A well-deserved honor to a leader whose competence, compassion, and courage is an inspiration to us all!
I am so delighted that George is being honored in this way. I’ve been a health care leader for over 45 years, in Boston and then Milwaukee, and I can say George is the best leader I have ever worked with. His integrity, intelligence, generosity, and courage make him an exceptionally effective champion for the community. Bravo George! I’ll be tuning in to watch you receive this well deserved honor.
Congratulations, George! Such well deserved recognition. I’m honored to be attend.
I have the privilege to serve with George on the Washington High School Alumni Scholarship Foundation. George is currently the treasurer of the organization. I’ve only known him for a few years, but I know him to be compassionate and committed to completing what he sets out to do. Moreover, he is persistent in wanting to make improvements and to leave things better for the people who follow. We are “Purgolder Proud” of him and his accomplishments, and for the positive impact he’s had on the Milwaukee community.
Congrats George and so well-deserved. I am proud to join you as a recipient. I am being recognized for the humanities honorary doctorate from MCW.
