William and Henrietta De Rose

Kevin De Rose was a bright, fun-loving junior from Palos Heights, Illinois who died after being struck by a car on the East Beltline on October 27, 1989. As a result of his volunteer work at Campus Life Ministries with high school students and after a great deal of prayer and soul-searching, Kevin had changed his field of study to Education. He loved to write and he planned to major in English. His love for God was obvious to all who knew him because he displayed an extraordinary amount of love and concern for others. This scholarship, established to honor his memory and funded by his family and friends, will be awarded yearly to an Education student who exhibits a similar love for others.
