It was reported to me today that we lost a great hometown hero this morning. Mr. Gordon Gibbons (AKA Mr. Lloyd, at the bicycle shop) He lived to see 102 years, my last time seeing him was at the MDBAA gala. He impressed the crowd when he spoke whit a strong and confident voice about is life and business of 60 years in Monrovia and Duarte. We will miss our hometown treasure, and so glad that he had a chance to be honored one last time.

Join us this Saturday as we kick off Black History Month!

Our hearts are heavy this morning, we lost one of our original founders of MDBAA this week. Kenneth (Brady) Weathersby was one of the nicest, coolest and funniest persons you could ever meet. Brady was always there for a young person, with advice on life, the fundamentals of sports, or just telling a funny story. So, when you remember Brady, remember that he lived what we live by... Helping Others Pursue Education.
