This scholarship is given in memory of a courageous, compassionate young man who lost the struggle with epilepsy in August of 1987. The amount of the scholarship varies according to the interest income, but it recently has averaged $1,500.
Greg was raised in the Boise area where he attended school. After facing several setbacks from seizures, he bravely finished his high school education with determination and dignity that was inspirational to all who knew him.
Greg planned on attending Boise State University when the battle against his rare type of epilepsy was lost.
Of the many wonderful memories Greg left for his family and friends, the best was his philosophy of accomplishing goals: that was, "YOU NEVER FAIL UNTIL YOU STOP TRYING." And so, it is in this spirit that this scholarship is given, for Greg's educational dreams to live on.
