For The Good Of Kappa: Brother Leroy Lewis and Silhouette Florence Lewis Rice - Happy Wedding Anniversary

Today, the New Rochelle - White Plains (NY) Alumni Chapter joyfully celebrates the 45th wedding anniversary of Brother Leroy Lewis and Silhouette Florence Lewis Rice.

When asked about their marriage, they said:

"It was a hot June 17th back in 1981. We both worked as usual, quickly left work to change our clothes and rushed to the Mayer's Office in Peekskill for the ceremony.

Immediately after the vows were spoken, we went to Leroy's job as he had to run the evening graduation ceremony at his school.

The next day I had to give my final exams at my school, so we didn't a beat or a day of work.

That set the tone for the next decades!

In*******al marriage was not a popular move in those days and we had a few challenges, but with the support of our families and friends and our determination to not repeat the mistakes we made in our first marriages.

We've had a good life together.".

Happy Anniversary Leroy and Florence. May God continue to Bless you both. 🧡 🙏 🧡

For The Good Of Kappa: Brothers Dr. Craig Woodward & Tim Lewis, Esq.

On June 7, Brothers Dr. Craig Woodward & Tim Lewis, Esq. attended the 2026 Black Scholars Reception

The 40th Anniversary Black Scholars Awards Recognition Event at Mercy University was nothing short of electric—an afternoon filled with pride, legacy, and the unstoppable brilliance of over 300 African American students from across Westchester County. These scholars, each of whom has maintained four consecutive years of high academic excellence, walked into the auditorium not just as honorees but as the embodiment of discipline, resilience, and generational hope. Families filled the room—parents, grandparents, mentors, and community supporters—each one radiating joy as they witnessed a milestone that has shaped local history for four decades.

This year's celebration featured keynote speaker Frank Williams, Executive Director of the White Plains Youth Bureau. His message was powerful, uplifting, and deeply personal—reminding students that excellence is not an accident but a commitment, and that their achievements are part of a much larger story of community strength and opportunity. His words resonated across the room, leaving students and adults alike inspired to dream bigger and push further.

As a proud annual supporter of this event, the New Rochelle–White Plains Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi continued its tradition of investing in the next generation of leaders. This year, the chapter awarded a $750 scholarship to Rodney Walker Jr., a standout senior from Archbishop Stepinac High School. Rodney will be heading to Utica College this fall to major in Business Administration. A dedicated student-athlete who excels in both football and basketball, Rodney embodies the very spirit of the Black Scholars' mission—academic excellence, leadership, and limitless potential.

Overall, the 40th Anniversary celebration received overwhelmingly positive responses. The atmosphere was vibrant, emotional, and filled with gratitude. Proud families cheered, students beamed with accomplishment, and the community came together to honor not just academic success, but the collective effort it takes to nurture it. After four decades, the Black Scholars Awards continue to shine as a beacon of excellence—and this year's milestone event reminded everyone in attendance that the future is bright, bold, and beautifully Black.
