Lea Rivera and Liam Walters
In June of this year the Stephen D. Quinn Memorial Scholarships were awarded at Our Lady of Victory School. The recipients were carefully chosen by the Principal and Teachers based on the Foundation’s criteria for the award. The two candidates truly embody Quinnie’s sense of sportsmanship and fair play.
The scholarships were awarded to Lea Rivera and Liam Walters. Each candidate received a beautiful plaque and a $1000 scholarship. Lea and Liam represent all the qualities that Quinnie stood for. I somehow believe that Quinnie has a hand in choosing the recipients! I am always so impressed with the candidates chosen by Our Lady of Victory School and again this year Lea and Liam were the perfect choice. They, along with their families were so proud and thankful for the honor of receiving the “Stephen D. Quinn Scholarship.”
I received a beautiful note from Lea that really says it all:
“I would like to formally thank you for bestowing such a high honor for me and my family. The plaque was beautiful. Based on what I have read, I discovered that he was a wonderful, considerate man. I will always try my best to maintain the qualities I have been acknowledged for. Our Lady of Victory is a superb school and hopefully following generations get the opportunity to learn about Stephen D. Quinn and how he continues to positively affect people’s lives.”
Each year we come together and have a wonderful day of golf and celebrate “Quinnie.” Thanks to the generosity of all involved with this Foundation, we are able to keep “Quinnie’s” legacy alive.
We congratulate Lea and Liam and wish them well as they move on to high school.
Congratulations,
Kathy and Kaitlyn
