Ken and Ginny Sullivan moved to Dayton in 1978, and after evaluating the area schools, specifically chose Archbishop Carroll High School for their children.  Their six children attended from 1978 through 1992.  Ginny’s death came in 1985 after a battle with cancer.

The faculty and family of Archbishop Carroll High School helped both of these families deal with the tragic loss of a parent, and these two families then came together with the marriage of Ken and Eileen in 1986!  These proud Patriots have added two more Carroll High School graduates as spouses, and have had three second generation graduates.  Among their ranks are a 2010 and 2016 Carroll High School Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame Inductee, three Patriot of the Year Award winners, scholars, athletes, educators, military officers, health care workers, and business people.  Most importantly, they are faith filled citizens and parents, owing many thanks to Carroll in their development.

It is with great pride that this scholarship is awarded to honor Ken and Eileen and their commitment to Catholic education is established.
