Wednesday, February 26, 2025; and

 WHEREAS, In 2006, the Young, Gifted, & Black (YGB) Entrepreneurial

celebrate everyday individuals who serve as positive role models,
inspiring their peers through their accomplishments, perseverance, and
contributions; and

 WHEREAS, Carl Gray's vision for the YGB Entrepreneurial Awards has
remained steadfast in ensuring recognition is given to those whose

furthered her studies at the City University of New York and received
her education in mortuary science at the American Academy McAllister

 WHEREAS, In 1984, Thelma L. Greaves-Hawkins established her own
funeral business, as Funeral Director and Manager, and has enjoyed every
day of her service to her community; with her throughout the years have
been her husband of 40 years, Rene E. Hawkins, five children, 23

profile and disposition of the communities of the State of New York,

profoundly strengthen our shared commitment to the exercise of freedom;
now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
