Paul Hill Memorial Scholarship
Paul Hill was the founder of our Post. Named for his son, Randy, Paul opened the Post in 1989 with the help of some friends at the National Guard Armory in Adrian. We celebrated our 15th Anniversary in 2004, unfortunately without Paul’s presence. He passed away December 1, 2003, after a long battle with cancer. To honor his never-ending commitment to soldiers everywhere, Post 1957 began the Paul Hill Memorial Scholarship Fund. Donations to the Fund can be made at any First Federal Bank branch location, and all contributions are tax deductible.
