I am planning on attending Fairfield University where I cannot only grow academically, but I can still continue to do community service.  I am planning on majoring in computer science and then receiving my master’s in cybersecurity.

Thank you so much to the Steuben Association for your generous scholarship.  I am honored to be chosen as the recipient of the Gerard S. Carmosin Memorial Scholarship.

Sincerely,

Joseph Westhoff"

THE 2ND 12TH GRADE SCHOLARSHIP OF $500.00

Is awarded to THOMAS GRISMER, sponsored by his Father, Jim Grismer (Ladder 16)

:

 "Hello my name is Thomas Grismer. I am the recipient of the 2020 FDNY Steuben Association ‘Second’ 12th Grade Scholarship. I am truly honored and grateful for this Scholarship.
I am a recent 2020 Graduate of Valley Central High School in Montgomery and I am starting to pursue a Secondary Education Degree at SUNY Orange in September.
At Valley Central HS, I was a 4 year member of the Cross Country and the Spring Track team. Last year I achieved the rank of Eagle Scout with Troop 31, Boy Scouts of America in Montgomery. For my Eagle Project, I took leadership to beautifying a memorial area for the 6 Valley Central Alumni killed in action in the Vietnam War. My family and I continue to maintain the area out of pride and respect for those brave men and their families. Since January 2017, I have been involved with the Walden Fire Department Fire Explorer Program. I transitioned into the Walden Fire Department last year as a Firefighter and am currently working on my first certification (Basic Exterior FF Training) and in the Fall hope to start training to become an Interior Firefighter. Although I will be studying to become a High School History Teacher my ultimate goal is to become a Career Firefighter like my father, Captain Jim Grismer of Ladder 16.
I would like to sincerely thank the FDNY Steuben Association Scholarship Committee for selecting me for this Scholarship. I would also like to add that this is an ‘extra special honor’ because following September 11th I was born a year later. My Dad’s Best Friend and Ladder 13 Mutual Partner, Thomas Hetzel made the Supreme Sacrifice on that morning when the North Tower collapsed. On October 30th, 2002, the night I was born I was named after Tom Hetzel.
Tom deeply loved his German Heritage and was a proud FDNY Steuben Association member.
I know he would be proud of me! Thank you once again!"

Respectfully yours,
Thomas M. Grismer
