  • Many Stars Come from Texas
    MANY STARS COME FROM TEXAS. t h e T erry fo un d atio n MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER he Terry Foundation is nearing its sixteenth anniversary and what began modestly in 1986 is now the largest Tprivate source of scholarships for University of Texas and Texas A&M University. This April, the universities selected 350 outstanding Texas high school seniors as interview finalists for Terry Scholarships. After the interviews were completed, a record 165 new 2002 Terry Scholars were named. We are indebted to the 57 Scholar Alumni who joined the members of our Board of Directors in serving on eleven interview panels to select the new Scholars. These freshmen Scholars will join their fellow upperclass Scholars next fall in College Station and Austin as part of a total anticipated 550 Scholars: the largest group of Terry Scholars ever enrolled at one time. The spring of 2002 also brought graduation to 71 Terry Scholars, many of whom graduated with honors and are moving on to further their education in graduate studies or Howard L. Terry join the workforce. We also mark 2002 by paying tribute to one of the Foundations most dedicated advocates. Coach Darrell K. Royal retired from the Foundation board after fourteen years of outstanding leadership and service. A friend for many years, Darrell was instrumental in the formation of the Terry Foundation and served on the Board of Directors since its inception. We will miss his seasoned wisdom, his keen wit, and his discerning ability to judge character: all traits that contributed to his success as a coach and recruiter and helped him guide the University of Texas football team to three national championships.

Several members of the Seguin Fire/EMS Department were recently recognized and honored for their dedication to the city during the department’s annual awards banquet. Named for 2020 Seguin Fire Chief Dale Skinner says these top five awards truly recognize the efforts of local fire personnel. “These firefighters are nominated by their peers and then the senior officers or the battalion chiefs and myself actually vote to pick the award winner for each category,” said Skinner. Topping this year’s awards list is Seguin Firefighter of the Year. Skinner says this year’s honor goes to Sergio Aguilar. “Sergio only really has been with the fire department for a couple of years now but he quickly rose up and was able to show that he was worthy of this award. He has a very good sense of humor. He believes that he is part of something that is bigger than himself. He has an exceptional attitude and is truly dedicated and has a passion for the fire service.” Sergio Aguilar, Firefighter of the Year Adrian Magallanes, Rookie of the Year Firefighters, pg 2.
