Tasha Brown-Montgomery and I were honored to once again present the Antwone Simmons Memorial Scholarship, alongside his sisters, Julia and Cynthia, and other members of the Simmons family. This scholarship is awarded annually to a graduating senior from Terrell High School who plans to pursue a professional trade degree.
