Shane Piehl Memorial

Shane received his Welding degree from Ridgewater in 2005. He was an active outdoorsman and enjoyed hunting, fishing, four-wheeling, snowmobiling, and riding his Harley. He was very good at fixing things and loved lending a helping hand to those in need. When Shane passed away unexpectedly in 2010 at the age of 25, his final act of kindness was to be an organ donor to give others a chance for a better quality of life. This scholarship is awarded to a Welding student.
