Congratulations to Protown, Ken Bento, Napoleon X and the entire production team on a superb job in spotlighting one of our community's great heroes and leaders.
Yes, it is true that there is so much to say about George, yet so little time. The life and wonderful work of George's late wife Selma, is yet another great story that needs to be told.
We certainly need to tell George Lima's story to all our children. We need to not only tell them, but visually show them, that they too can fly. That they too can soar to new heights, new horizons and possibilities. We need. to the best of our abilities help provide that exciting and purposeful vision of tomorrow that will strengthen their lives.
We can do it! We must do it! We have the talent, skills and technology. All that has been lacking is the necessary networking and will power.
George is one of my life's heroes and I am proud to say one of the recipients of our community newspaper's highest honors, "The Millennium Award" for a life-time of outstanding achievements.
The George Lima story...is a very powerful story that can help ignite the spirit and latent energy and talent that exist within the community.
Again, congratulations and continue, continue success,
Tom Lopes
