“The scholarship was named in honor of our father Henry Funk,” said Funk, speaking on behalf of his brothers, Bob and Dave Funk. “Henry Funk was a steward of the community who believed in returning many of the gifts that he received in order to help others. His vision was always to provide high quality construction that leaves a legacy in the community. This scholarship continues that vision to assist others in achieving their goals for the future.”
