Emcee Joel White, a Forsyth County Library administrator,^tsked several NBTF support ers to recall "marvtastic" moments from Hamlin's life. Many events were recalled, including the time President Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham Clinton invited Larry Leon Hamlin to the White House, and an honor Hamlin received in New York City shortly before his death for his valuable contributions to the black theater. "Larry would be elated about tonight. And look at all of this purple and black. The people here are his friends and supporters," said Sprinkle Hamlin. Annie Hamlin Johnson, Hamlin's mother, agreed. She thanked all of her son's supporters. "Larry would not have been what he was without you all. You are the stars. Let me tell you something now: Larry was feisty, and he took that after his mother," Hamlin Johnson said. "Tonight, we are at the Apollo (Theater). We are here to celebrate Larry Leon Hamlin's birthday." Court members with Pastor Stacey Frazier. A scene from the Cleveland Avenue Homes project.
