I am so grateful for being recognized for doing a job that is a joy.” “It’s very nice to get this type of recognition,” added General. “I usually try to stay in the background. It’s really great that merchants recognize my community involvement and it’s outstanding to be part of a group of community leaders.” The Morrish award proved to be an emotional portion of the evening. “Larry did more to define Bay Ridge as a community than any living person,” said Howe. “He always stirred the community in the right direction. What he thought was, if you’re going to back something, really back it. Give it your heart and soul.” "Tonight we have a new Larry Morrish award to honor his memory and wonder how one person could’ve been so involved in so many aspects of a community and to have had so much of an impact," added Otey.
