I don’t think there are words that can express the extent of my gratitude. I have not won many scholarships so being awarded this opportunity means so much. Not only that but, also being awarded this scholarship from a family that has taken loss and pain and made an opportunity for others is not lost on me. I promise to represent this scholarship and represent Ryan’s memory throughout my academic endeavors.

Thank you for reviewing my essay as a finalist for your scholarship! Even though I didn't receive it, I'm still honored my essay made it as far as it had, so thank you for allowing me to write it!

I am so thankful to have the honor to be considered for this scholarship award. I pray the recipients use this scholarship to help them achieve their goals and not let anything stop them from getting to where they want to be!
