“I was very honored to receive this scholarship in honor of my friend Henry Farmer. Recognizing the work we do at Post 53 through this scholarship is a meaningful way to keep Henry’s spirit a part of the Darien community. I am so grateful to have been selected for this honor and will always remember the significance of receiving this special award.”
Kai Sparks, Post 53 & DHS Class of 2024
“I am genuinely honored and thankful to be awarded this scholarship. It both acknowledges the good work that Post 53 does for Darien and allows me to continue pursuing higher education in honor of Henry. Most importantly, it keeps alive our collective memories of Henry’s gentle yet charismatic character and the short but precious time that we enjoyed his special companionship. These memories are an inspiration to my continued work in healthcare, and I am eternally grateful to Henry for that.”
Grace Althoff, Post 53 & DHS Class of 2023
“I am forever thankful to the Farmer Family for awarding me with the Henry L. Farmer V - Post 53 Scholarship. It is an honor to serve Darien EMS - Post 53 and to have been there to help care for my community. To this day I strive to uphold the qualities of the scholarship as well as the qualities of Henry, a friendly neighbor, whose dedication and passion always showed when shooting his daily hockey shots on goal in his backyard. ”
