The Patrick Witkowski Memorial Scholarship was established by Patrick’s parents, Tracy and Paul, in his loving memory after his death in 2013. Patrick graduated from Kennedy Catholic in 2009 and was a graduate of Washington State University. Patrick loved his time at John F. Kennedy Catholic High School and would be touched to help Lancers succeed during their high school journey. The scholarship will be awarded based on responses to questions that Pat’s parents, Paul and Tracy, developed which align to the characteristics Patrick portrayed while attending Kennedy Catholic. Some of those characteristics include; faith, leadership and random acts of friendship.
