Emily and Mary Sticklen of Dover were awarded Gerald F. Healy Kentucky Law Enforcement Memo-rial Foundation Scholar-ships. Emily, a student at Northern Kentucky University, and Mary, a student at the University of Kentucky were awarded $2,000 scholarships. They are the surviving daugh-ters of Alexandria Police Department Officer James Sticklen, who died in the line of duty on March 4,

2011.Sticklen will be hon-

ored at the Kentucky Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony on May 22 at the Department of Criminal Justice Training.

Founded in 1999, The Kentucky Law Enforce-ment Memorial Founda-tion’s original purpose was to build a memorial that would honor all Kentucky officers who have been killed in the line of duty. Once the monument was

completed in 2000, the organization expanded its efforts to include a finan-cial endowment program, which helps Kentucky peace officers and their families with educational, medical and emergency relief.

In 2004, the founda-tion created this scholar-ship program to help law enforcement officers, public safety dispatchers and their families pay for college. It is restricted to

law enforcement officers and public safety dispatch personnel (current, retired or disabled) and their sur-vivors or dependents. The scholarships may be used at any accredited college or university, including two-year and community colleges and may also be used for attendance at recognized or certified vo-cational or trade schools. Students do not have to major in law enforcement or criminal justice to be

eligible for the scholar-ship.

“The goal of the Ken-tucky Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation has always been to honor and help the officers of this state,” said KLEMF Ex-ecutive Director Horace Johnson. “I cannot think of a better way to honor the fallen heroes of the past and our officers of today than to help educate their survivors, their comrades and their dependents for a

better future.”Gerald F. Healy was a

founding member of the KLEMF organization and served on the board of di-rectors until his death in January 2009.

The owner of 14 Mc-Donald’s franchises in central Kentucky, Healy embraced the philosophy of giving back to the com-munity and was instru-mental in starting the KL-EMF college scholarship program.

2012, the officers and planning committee met at the Mason County Exten-sion Office to discuss final plans, costs and program.

Alumni are being asked to send in the completed return card with their res-

ervation payment to Bill Moran by May 12, 2012. It is important that the choice of entrée is marked. The price is $25 per person which includes dinner, tax and gratuity.

The committee has opened reservations to anyone attending Minerva School. Those wishing to attend may call Joan Walch at 606-564-9353 or Bill Moran at 606-564- 9298 with an up-to-date ad-dress and phone number and then a letter with de-tails of the reunion will be mailed to them.
