These scholarships are an example of family giving to family and demonstrate a way of giving back to your community and telling your children “We are proud of you”. The tradition began with Chuck and Mariann’s parents and is a strong family value that has been passed on to their four sons.
The Younger’s moved from Quincy, Illinois to Findlay in August 1972. The Younger sons graduated from Findlay High School. All of them participated in the band program and were National Honor Society members. They participated in various activities including tennis, soccer, forensics, student government, and debate. Giving of resources and service are fundamental family values that each of the sons has carried forward in their own lives.
