Gerard Kaye ’50 (MA ’51) recently received the 50-year Legion of Honor Award for a half century of service to Kiwanis International. It is quite an distinction–less than 1 percent of all Kiwanians reach this honor. Kaye, along with his wife Mildred ’51, also received the Hugh O’Brian Foundation 10-year, 10,000-mile, 10,000-hour service award given for their volunteer work with high school students. In the 46 years of the foundation, which uplifts the American free enterprise system, only 17 have been granted. The Kayes are the first to receive it as a couple. Outside of Kiwanis, the Kayes are retired after 42 years in education and ministry. They continue to live in Albuquerque, N.M.
