Dean - you know I’m in. As I suggested the last time, I suggest a perm
endowed Aggie Band Class of 1977 Memorial Fund for Our Departed Comrades.
I’m already at “who’s in and how much.” Cheers, Steve

Dean;
It is a great thing to do. My Wife’s Brothers/Sisters did that in honor
to their parents. Easy to do and you get a message every year on who the
scholarship goes to and a little about the recipient.
It is fairly easy. Just send your money in to the Foundation with the
name/code and they get it all set up.
I think a BQ77 Scholarship would be great. You can even earmark it to a
person in the Band as the recipient if you want.

Opinions welcome.

My discussion about Marlon and Marlon's brother made me think of another
thought that's been rolling around my empty skull.
So we've done a few things in honor of our deceased brothers. I'm good
with all of those, and I appreciate the folks who worked to get those
accomplished.
But I was wondering about a permanent scholarship fund. Instead of coming
up with a new project every time one of us makes The Last Corps Trip, we
can memorialize our fallen classmate with a gift to the fund. The sadness
of more of us passing would be a bit offset with the fund growing and
benefiting a current student.
Obviously we can restrict it to a current BQ, if we wish. The gifts would
remain in the endowment, any interest/dividend to the scholarship.
If there is interest, I can find out the particulars from my niece,
