The Linda Westcott Memorial Scholarship
Linda Jean Westcott was born in Kalamazoo in 1947. She attended Kalamazoo Central High school graduating in 1965. From that point, she attended Western Michigan University for two years, ended her college career, married James Westcott and started a family. She was a dedicated wife and mother, and her love of children was not only for the four she had at home, but she also spread her welcoming arms to kids throughout the neighborhood; she cared for, guided, taught, and loved many children over the years.
Because she left such a footprint on the hearts of those she touched, we are proud to offer the Linda Westcott Memorial Scholarship to a deserving senior who is interested in a vocation working with children. Her legacy, in this way, will not be forgotten. Selection Criteria
