The family of Brian Dickie has announced a $2,000 annual scholarship for Inglemoor High graduates. The scholarship honors the memory of Brian, who graduated from the school in 1967. He died in March 2011 after a long battle with brain cancer.

“This scholarship is a way for us to remember Brian and give back to the community that he loved,” said Keith Dickie, Brian’s brother and fellow Inglemoor alumnus.

Brian, who participated in sports at Inglemoor, served in the United States Army and graduated from the University of Washington in 1976. Brian worked for and later became owner of Vandermeer Forest Products in Lynnwood.

The scholarship is available to an Inglemoor graduating senior who meets the eligibility requirements and who plans to attend a public or private Washington state college or university. Applicants must also complete an essay on “how a positive and/or humorous attitude can be helpful to ourselves and others.”

Applications, which can be obtained in the Inglemoor guidance office, must be completed and postmarked by Feb. 1, 2012 to be considered for review by the scholarship committee.
