CAPE GAZETTE, Friday, Jan. 19 - Jan. 25, 2001 - 73 Sarah Greene photo Festivities celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr. spanned the weekend in Delaware's Cape Region, with a parade in Rehoboth on Saturday, above, and a service commenced Monday, Jan. 15, at the Midway Assembly of God. Shown above left is Outstanding Community Award recipient Pearl J. Maull gave an a cappella rendition of "The Glory and Honor of Jesus." Maull, who taught for 28 years in public schools of Sussex County, is an active member of St. George's AME Church, Lewes, and is the immediate past president of the Delaware Confer- ence Lay Organization. She is a member of the Bishop's Advisory Committee and has served many times as an Episcopal District member for various committees. Maull has also served on the boards of many civic and community groups in the Lewes and Rehoboth area. She was ap- pointed by Gov. Tom Carper to serve on the Foster Care Review Board and the Governor's Volunteer Council Board. At left, the Ebony Angels from Cambridge, Md., includ- ing (l-r) Jabrile Williams, Sharika Wilson and Mitoya Taylor enjoy their part in the parade on Jan. 13. Herman Paynter, a 1975 Cape Henlopen High School gradu- ate, received his Outstanding Community Service Award. Overcoming what to many would be obstacles, Paynter has been employed for 25 years by Kent & Sussex Industries. He is a devoted member of Christ's Church in Harbeson where he sings in the Joyful Noise Choir, The Gospel Choir and The Men's Choir. "Herman, we salute you today," said award pre- senter Bernice Edwards. Spirited songs from Sussex Central High School's Youth in Unit choir filled the Midway Assembly of God in Lewes with a joyous sound and received standlrag ovations from those as- sembled at the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. National Holdiay Worship Service on Jan. 15. Com- mittee members for the event included Diaz Bonville, left, and Rew. George H. Edwards Jr., right, are shown with the group. A myriad of events celebrated tlhe memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a civil rights leader slain in Memphis Tenn. in 1968. The Tuskegee Airmen, black servicemen of the U.S. Army Air Forces who trained at Tuskegee Army Air Field in Alaba- ma during World War II, constituted the first African-Ameri- can flying unit in the U.S. military. The group was weil-rep- resented at the parade by the John H. Porter division from Dover.
