Edward G. Hames '36 Alumni Honors Award

"Saint Thomas Academy, in creating the Alumni Honors Award, seeks to give due recognition to those alumni who have exemplified the ideals of Saint Thomas Academy, and in doing so distinguished themselves in their communities. Such alumni enrich the lives of those about them through their personal and family lives, or their professional occupations, or their civic leadership, or human welfare activities, or their intellectual or cultural pursuits, or their efforts to advance the goals of the Academy. In presenting this award, Saint Thomas hopes the example of the alumnus so honored will be a source of edification and encouragement to alumni, students, and their communities we all serve."
