Regional mass transit pioneer Marvin E Lewis, a determined prophet for who praises often went unsung but whose crusading spirit and eloquence kept the image of rapid transit alive while the tapestry of the Bay community grew to fit his dream is honored by San Francisco for his unquenchable ardor and unflagging perseverance which vanquished early doubters and presented a gift of unmatched value to his city - the genesis of the San Francisco Area Rapid Transit District.
