IN LOVING MEMORY

Tyler Richards Memorial Scholarship Fund

Over $35K has been awarded to Walled Lake Northern High School seniors since 2005.

This scholarship was established in honor of Tyler Richards after his passing in 2003. It has been generously funded by hundreds of family members, friends, teammates, teachers, coaches, and benevolent strangers. In addition, one dollar per copy sold of A Far Cry…From Home by Sandy Richards is donated to this fund.

It is our hope that Tyler will be memorialized through the success of the recipients of this scholarship.  FAQ | OUR SCHOLARS
