John's Scholarship Fund

In addition to family and friends posting remembrances of John, one of the purposes of this blog is to keep everyone up to date with respect to the status of John's scholarship fund and plans for its use.

This fund has become a truly fitting tribute to John. To date, over $21,000.00 has been contributed and donations still arrive almost every week. Final plans have yet to be made as to how to apply the fund, as we anticipate that John himself will be able to contribute as the affairs of his estate are finalized in the months to come.

Depending upon the eventual size of the fund, at this point in time we anticipate looking for one or more opportunities to contribute to a computer lab or similar endeavor at an educational institution, preferably at the elementary school level. As we have always said, the objective is to help the "big geek" foster a lot of "little geeks" who share John's love of information technology.

For those interested, contributions can still be made to:

John William Leonard Memorial Scholarship Fund
c/o Bank of America
28250 Three Notch RD
Mechanicsville, MD 20659

Our sincere thanks to all those who have made contributions to date. They will prove to be yet one more way to continue John's legacy.

"Techie John"
