This year, due to the Coronavirus, LEHS was not able
to have an actual Awards Ceremony. We are happy to report because of some
very generous classmates we were able to present two $1,000 scholarships. This
year we limited the candidates to grandchildren of our classmates as long as
they met the requirements. We had two candidates apply and were happy to
present each of them with our LEHS Class of ’65 Scholarship.
Our scholarship recipients are:
1). Tyler Drinan (Grandson of Linda Wurdeman Curcuru) ranks in the top 30
percent of his class, was an Honor Roll student for all four years & plans
to attend Franklin Pierce University where he will major in Sports Management.
Tyler loves playing and following sports; played soccer for the first two years
@ LEHS and football for his final two years as the starting kicker; played four
years of basketball and was on the team who won the Massachusetts Division 1
boys state basketball tournament for the first time since 1938. Tyler has been
a reliable Aide to the Vice-principals, volunteered at Lavender Day Soccer Camps
along with working three years at Market Basket. Tyler also has completed the
two-year Cisco Academy program to become a certified IT professional.
2). Ryan Bursey (Grandson of Pat Johnson Morley) also ranks in the top 30 percent of his class & plans to attend Plymouth State University where he will major in Nursing. He was a member of the LEHS Football team and the All-Lynn lacrosse team. Ryan has worked part-time at Zumiez and Vinwood Catering.
Tyler and Ryan have both worked very hard during their years at LEHS; we are sorry their graduation plans and all their classmates’ plans, etc. were so impacted by the Pandemic. We wish them both much success & happiness in college and in life.
Thank you to those of you who generously donated this year to make it possible for our class to give a second scholarship.
Tyler Drinan (Grandson of Linda Wurdeman Curcuru)
