This scholarship has been created in memory of a loving mother and wife, and her son who lived his life big! They are an example to us all in perseverance and hard work. Denise loved her family and enjoyed using her artistic skills by making scrapbooks that featured her children and grandchildren. Dan had a love of mentoring those around him, and he had a propensity to serve anyone in need. Dan demonstrated a high level of intelligence and success in unconventional academic environments; skills he learned from watching his mother raise 5 incredible kids. The Temple family would like this scholarship to go to individuals who exemplify some of the following attributes: service oriented, passionate in pursuing their talents, excellent work ethic, contributes to their community, and who is a compassionate mentor.
