KINGSFORD — In loving memory of Tracy VanDusen, a 2004 Kingsford High School graduate, her family has established the Tracy VanDusen Memorial Scholarship.

Her life was defined by her deep compassion, unwavering loyalty, and boundless love for animals, family, and friends. She was a dedicated mother, a supportive community member, and a woman of strong faith. This scholarship honors her spirit of selflessness and her commitment to others.

This scholarship is available to graduating seniors of Kingsford High School who have experienced the loss of a parent or sibling. Scholarship funds can be used for any post-graduation career path, including but not limited to college, technical school, or vocational training. The first $500 scholarship will be awarded this spring to one Kingsford High School graduate in the Class of 2025.

The Board of Education of Breitung Township Schools and the administration of Kingsford High School are pleased to accept the opportunity to coordinate such a meaningful scholarship for the her family and the graduates of Kingsford High School. Individuals interested in donating to the Tracy VanDusen Memorial Scholarship can contact Jamie Lockhart, Scholarship Coordinator/KHS, or David Lindbeck, principal, at 431 Hamilton Ave. Kingsford, MI 49802, calling 779-2670, ext.4, or by emailing jlockhart@kingsford.org for more information.
