Memorials - The scholarship was originally awarded in memory of
Jon M.
Malinowski of Woodinville who died in an auto accident while in
high school several years prior to the 1984 formation of the Foundation.
Family and friends established a memorial fund in Jon's memory in
recognition of the family's interest in journalism and education. The
fund was merged with several others in providing the asset base for the
Foundation.
Originally a middle school teacher, Jon's mother was
news editor of the Northshore Citizen at the time of his death. She
later became communications director for the Northshore School
District prior to retirement.
The memorial account was secured
in the spring of 2002 with a
$2,500 grant from Peter Horvitz of Horvitz Newspapers which published
the King County Journal daily newspapers and the weekly Reporter
newspapers in Bothell, Kenmore and Redmond and the Snoqualmie
Valley Record and Mercer Island Reporter.
Upon his death in the fall of 2002, friends and family added
contributions to the Communications scholarship account in the name of Ted
Marston, a well-known publicist and writer in the field of
horticulture. A native of Iowa, Ted Marston came to Woodinville to
operate a greenhouse business on the present-day Chateau Ste. Michelle
site south of downtown Woodinville. He later published a national
gardening magazine prior to concentrating in field of garden writing.
The families have agreed to award future scholarships in the memory of Jon,
Paul and Ted.
