“I feel unbelievably honored to be receiving the Stephen Chandler Ericson Foundations generous scholarship because as I read the story behind this foundation and its history, I was beyond touched. I can see the hard work and love from Stephens family and friends and the generosity of the West Chester area that has brought forth 30 years of kindness and will hopefully continue for years to come. My hope is that many more learn about this amazing human being and the life he lead. I see through the words and dedication of his family, a bright and warm hearted individual who had a way to see through exteriors and see beauty in everything and everyone. I can only imagine Gods love for him and his family and the great work and love that is being done for our community. I am so incredibly thankful for being chosen to accept the Stephen Chandler Ericson Award and I wish all the best in the continuance of his memory. Thank you.”
