The Grace M. Dudich Memorial Scholarship recognizes the life of Grace McKenna Dudich, daughter of Ashley (’05 graduate and long-time staff member of North Central College) and John Dudich. Grace, a 3rd grade student in Naperville, loved school and is remembered for her sweet spirit and the kindness she exuded towards those around her. Grace passed away in February of 2019 from a sudden cardiac event at the age of 9. The Dudich Family has founded this scholarship in Grace’s memory in an effort to assist an incoming full-time student pursuing their undergraduate education at the College.

We’re so thankful for your donation to this scholarship that carries on the name of our Grace. Thank you for all of the ways so many continue to carry her in their hearts.

With gratitude, The Dudich Family (Ashley, John, Max, Juliana and Theo)
