Alvin Frazier Inducted into Gibbs High School Hall of Fame
What a wonderful celebration of accomplishment! Our very own Alvin Frazier, along with 11 others, was inducted into the Gibbs High School Hall of Fame on Tuesday December 18, 2012. The event was a huge success and very well attended.
The evening kicked off with a reception in the atrium of the auditorium that had been setup with the personal artifacts of Gibbs Alumnist Minson Rubin, Historian. Huge pictorial panels of the glorious days gone by were prominently displayed for all to see along with a artist rendering of the original Gibbs building. The pictorial displays served as the perfect conversation piece as friends and former athletics reminisced about that awesome play, perfect pass, or manficent coach.
Family, friends and food complimented the evening as a melodious jazz band played in the background. The Gibbs Class of 1968, Inc. supports their own; once the word was out, the Board unanimously decided we would be in attendance. We attended and wore one of four Class of 1968 polo shirts to show our support. Alvin's family turned out in huge numbers as well. We all were very proud of Alvin's accomplishment.
After a bit of socializing, we were ushered into the auditorium where the Induction Ceremony was held. Each inductee's bio was read and they provided a response. There was banter about who had the best graduating class, however, we know it was the Gibbs Senior High Class of 1968, Inc!
The evening ended on a high note by encouraging the community to support it's alma mater and by thanking each and everyone for their support!
Congratulations Alvin!
