As thousands of people lined-up to be fed, Larkin called up name after name and volunteer after volunteer to the stage, people who had helped him or the community during the year. He also thanked the Scientology Volunteer Ministers for their work during Hurricane Irma.
“I must say how proud I am of this community,” said Marva McWhite, past president of the NAACP Clearwater Upper/Pinellas County Branch on stage as she received a community service award from Larkin. “We have made tremendous progress. You have come together and proven that we are a village.”
Anthony Burney, the president of the Martin Luther King Jr. Neighborhood Center Coalition, who was also awarded, said O’Neal “recognizes the people and the less fortunate. When we get everyone included, everyone coming together for the human race—that’s how it should be.”
