About
The Rick Duncanson Memorial Scholarship was founded in 2012 in the memory of Rick Duncanson Jr. who unexpectedly passed away. He was a dedicated EMT and Firefighter for the town of Windham, ME for 26 years and was a lieutenant for the department at the time of his passing. He enjoyed mentoring the new rookies on the job. To keep his memory alive and his love for the job his family thought it would be nice to create a scholarship to help the future of the industry.
“Next to creating a life, the finest thing a man can do is save one.”
—Abraham Lincoln
