Honorable Herbert E. Tucker, Jr. Scholarship Fund Appeal

July 15, 2007
Dear Brothers of our Beloved Fraternity;
I would first like to commend Gamma Chapter for the outstanding achievement and accomplishment on the celebration of the 90th Anniversary Reunion. As 38th Grand Basileus of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.; I am extremely proud of your chapter’s steadfast “Legacy of Leadership” within our great fraternity.

I commend Brother Richard L. Taylor, Honorary Chair; who served as 1st Vice-Grand Basileus under Former 28th Grand Basileus – James Avery; and Brother Vernell Baker, Basileus of Eta Phi - Graduate Chapter for hosting this Reunion.

One of the honors of being elected Grand Basileus of this great organization is following in the footsteps of such great Omega Men, as our 23rd Grand Basileus – the Honorable Herbert E. Tucker, Jr. I have agreed to attend the Gamma Chapter 90th Anniversary Reunion in Boston, August 23rd -26th, 2007; and serve as Keynote Speaker for the Scholarship Gala named in his honor.

To this end I encourage all Brothers throughout the world to support the fundraising effort which will endow Former Grand Basileus Tucker’s – Scholarship Fund. To further support a mission which was so dear to Former Grand’s wishes, will truly pay honor and respect to his Family, his Friends, and his Fraternity. Visit the web site @ www.gammachapter1916.org to pledge your support.

I also encourage Brothers throughout the country to join us in Boston; for there lies the roots of our Country, our Fraternity, and our Friendship. I look forward to seeing you there. “Friendship is essential to the Soul.”

Fraternally Yours,
Warren G. Lee, Jr.
38th Grand Basileus
