Family, I am thrilled to let you know that congratulations are in order.  It is with honor family, that I announce there’s a Doctor in the family.  That’s right…..he’s not prescribing pharmacy drugs, but he’s able to give you medicine for your soul, oh and I’m positive that he has a Word for you as well.

I announce to you each of you, that our cousin, Lamonte Hampton, son of Barbara Hampton, grandson of Ollie Boyd and great-grandson of Mattie Hubbard, has finished and defended his dissertation for a PhD in Divinity. His graduation date is May 15, 2022.
Congratulations on attaining your Doctorate degree!
