Mickey Looney Team Spirit Scholarship for graduating seniors

Picture
Unable to participate in sports due to a congenital heart condition, Mickey participated in the games from the sidelines.  He served as student manager of varsity squad athletics during his seventh and eighth grade years, and passed away on May 18, 1963 just two months prior to his 14th birthday.  Mickey represented the heart and soul of our teams and Ralston as a community.  He was an honest, enthusiastic, and conscientious part of everything associated with what it means to be a devoted team member.  Mickey was a giver of his best to help others be at their best.  That virtue of gratitude was a hallmark of Mickey because he constantly looked outward of the self to serve others.  His high energy presence was infectious.  He left a lasting mark on all who knew him.  His parents and loving brother, Ralph, extended Mick's memories for all to feel his goodness knowing so many were touched positively by him.  In many ways he represented the goodness of what it meant to grow up in Ralston.
Description of Scholarship: This scholarship is awarded to one graduating senior who most exemplifies Mickey’s character in their academic studies and co-curricular activities, such as sports, music, school clubs, or school projects, especially his strong and enduring commitment to helping others excel at Ralston High School.  The monies the recipient receives from this scholarship will help support their higher education studies, an opportunity that was not available to Mickey due to his untimely death.

Please consider a charitable donation to our alma mater through the Mickey Looney Team Spirit Scholarship in memory of Mickey or in honor/memory of your Ralston family members, classmates, or teachers.
