The Emerson W. Green Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in memory of Shepherd Pharmacist Emerson Green by his wife Marie and their four children. Mr. Green was an active member of the Shepherd community, serving as President of the Shepherd Board of Education and the Chamber of Commerce as well as being active in St. Vincent DePaul Catholic Church. He encouraged and supported young people to pursue their goals through higher education. This encouragement and support was given to all in whatever career goal they endeavored and began with his own four children.
